What Makes Labrador Such A Special Place To Cruise?

The sense of being alone and self-reliant is ever more present. What Makes This CCA Guide Worth Having Aboard? It includes details and many chartlets for over 200 harbors. It covers all parts of the coast. It is filled with useful facts and recommendations gleaned from 70 years of continuous publishing and regular updates.
