Chance the Tide provides invaluable information for anyone considering a winter cruise to the Bahamas. Author Kenneth Mowbray covers all of the major decisions involved in choosing a yacht and equipping it properly, and also provides readers with many valuable tips to make the trip easier. Most of his information comes from personal experience and cannot be found in most cruising guides or other sources readily available to those sailors wishing to travel down the Intracoastal Waterway and across the Gulf Stream.

Mowbray's secrets and insight will make the journey a truly memorable one that readers will most likely repeat several times.



“A useful guide filled with sound advice for cruise lovers everywhere…” —Midwest Book Review
