About the Author
Nancy and Simon Scott are well qualified to write a guide book on the Virgin Islands, as they met while cruising in these fabulous islands in 1974. Managing a major bareboat charter company for the next eight years in the Virgins enabled them to see things through the eyes of both the cruising yachtsman and the charterer. Now living in Florida, Simon continues his work in the marine field, while Nancy manages the offices of Cruising Guide Publications. Several trips a year, sailing with their two daughters, keeps the Scotts informed and involved in the happenings above and below the sparkling blue waters of the Virgin Islands.

Not very in depth guide,
By Randy P. (Maryland, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cruising Guide to the Virgin Islands, 13th ed (Spiral-bound)
This guide only gives basic information about cruising the Virgin Islands. It's not much better than the free guides that are given out and supported entirely by ads. It only gives information on islands where a commercial interest has supported the write up. It only gives a mention of islands or anchorages where some one is collecting a fee, so if there is a secluded spot that is free you won't read about it here. It doesn't provide any critique on establishments so you won't know if you are walking into the best restaurant on the island or a complete dump. I don't know if there are better guides for the Virgin Islands but it is a poor example of a cruising guide.

A Magazine...,
This review is from: Cruising Guide to the Virgin Islands, 13th ed (Spiral-bound)
Did not like the way the author designed the book, full of VI advertising. Artikels are shallow. Hope that the essentials are accurate as I am on may way to the BVIs.

Great guide to VI. Get this printed guide. Don't waste your time and money on the Cruising the VI DVD. Everything you need is in this printed guide.
