exploring the East Coast in pictures

Explore the swatchways of the East Coast with the authors. Every page is illustrated with mainly aerial photos, all in colour, of the East Coaster’s much loved sailing grounds seen as the sailor has never seen it before.

Basically this is a picture album but each page has paragraphs giving interesting snippets about the pictorial voyage from Lowestoft to Ramsgate. Did you know the wind farm turbines only have a 20 year life span? that they cannot work when there is too much or too little wind? that the average power developed is less than a third of the theoretical maximum?
