This seventh edition contains numerous revisions throughout but in particular the text, plans and photographs for Liguria and the northern Tyrrhenian have been completely overhauled. There are a large number of new and amended plans and Rod Heikell has taken a lot of care to research the details of marina developments. Where it has been available information is given on proposed changes and extensions to yacht harbours. Marine reserves are now an important feature of the coasts and off-lying islands, particulary in Sardinia and Sicily, and this edition provides updated details of the latest regulations.

Italian Waters Pilot is the last word on the area for the yachts cruising there and on their way between the western and eastern parts of the Mediterranean. It links up with Rod Heikell’s companion guides on France, Greece and Turkey which are acclaimed as the best pilot books currently available.
