Nick and Jenny Coghlan will present Nick’s latest book: Under Wide and Starry Skies – Fifty Sailing Destinations in Seas Less Travelled, which was published in early 2025 by Bloomsbury/Adlard Coles (UK).
As Nick explains in the introduction, this is a book for offshore cruisers who wish to stray from the well-populated cruisers’ milk run – away from the BVIs, the Windwards, Tahiti and Tonga – and find solitude (but in safety, and without venturing to extreme latitudes). They’ll pick half a dozen or so of the locations featured, which range from fabled Robinson Crusoe Island to the remote fortress of Saint Helena and – least travelled of all – Crocodile Island, on war-torn Sudan’s Blue Nile.
