Omschrijving

Pacific Ocean Mariners Guide
By Alan Phillips

The Pacific Ocean is not one cruising ground. It is a system of trade winds, cyclone seasons, currents, and long distances that rewards disciplined planning and punishes guesswork.

This guide is built for skippers who want to get it right. Authored by Alan Phillips who has done a double circumnavigation,

Inside, you will find a practical, skipper-first breakdown of the world's largest ocean: how to move with the trades, when to cross, where to stop, and how to avoid the seasonal traps that catch the unprepared. From classic routes across the South Pacific to the realities of the North Pacific, this is not theory—it is structured, real-world passage thinking. Alan Phillips brings the knowledge from his two world circumnavigations.

The focus is simple: routes, weather, timing, and decision-making.

You will work through:

The major Pacific crossing patterns and how they actually function Seasonal movement strategies to stay out of cyclone and storm zones Key landfalls, staging points, and safe cruising corridors Weather systems that control the ocean—and how to use them Practical passage logic based on real offshore experience

This is not a glossy travel guide. It is a working reference.

Every section is built around verification—official weather sources, proven routing logic, and the kind of hard-earned understanding that comes from time at sea. The aim is not to impress you. It is to help you make better decisions when it matters.

If you are planning a serious Pacific passage, this guide will give you the structure to do it properly.
