RESOURCES
At SetSail our mission is to set you free to pursue your cruising dreams.
We do this by providing you with the knowledge necessary to make the right
decisions (and avoid the wrong ones) in every aspect of the cruising lifestyle.
From the technical aspects of equipping your boat with the best gear for
your budget and style of cruising, to the skills necessary for safe, comfortable,
and enjoyable voyaging, our goal is to help you make it happen - sooner
rather than later!
To help you in your quest we've assembled a library of the best books
you can obtain on the subjects critical to turning your dreams into reality.
Some of these are our own titles, while others are selected from a list
of other publishers. All of these are the best in their field and, of
course, come with our no-questions-asked money back guarantee.
We'll see you out there cruising.
