Charlie’s Charts: Polynesia

Newly updated in 2011 with the extensive knowledge of Captain Holly Scott from her many adventures in Polynesia. Additionally, we have received and incorporated many updates on anchorages and marina facilities from cruisers who are out there right now in the following areas: Iles Marquises Archipel des Tuamotu (the Tuamotu) Pitcairn Island Isla de Pascua (Easter lsland) Iles de la Societe (Society Islands–Windward Islands of Tahiti, Moorea, Huahine, Raiatea and Bora-Bora) Cook Islands Niue In addition to color photographs by Charles and Margo Wood and Karin Steinkamp, the 7th Edition includes several new photographs by Captain Holly and Jo. The introduction covers topics such as routes and passage times, weather, cyclones, currents, entry procedures and regulations for the different areas. After cruising the Tuamotu and Society Islands for two seasons we are convinced that there is no better and up-to-date guide and the authors have gone far to revise the charts and add new information as often as practicable.
