Aegean Pilot Books … from Santa Claus or Amazon!

Rod Heikell’s pilot books are well known as cruising guides to Greece. They are all fully illustrated with up-to-date plans, photographs and interesting articles on local history and customs as well as pilotage information.

If you plan to charter or sail your own yacht in Greek waters next year why not ask Santa Claus to bring you one of these pilots? And, to give Santa a helping hand, you can click on the images below to go straight to Amazon.
