While you’re at the 2009 Annapolis Sailboat Show, be sure to stop by the Author’s Corner (Booth M5) and talk cruising.

Jimmy Cornell is the author of the best-selling World Cruising Routes

Cruising the Chilean Channels and Cape Horn
Stretching northward from Cape Horn along Chile’s west coast lies a 1,000-mile long archipelago of islands and channels, narrow sounds and glacier-studded fjords with only a handful of settlements.

Beth Leonard and her husband, Evans Starzinger, have spent a total of …Read more
