Well actually I was quoting somebody else on this. I too have the Fourth edition of 1987. -----Original Message----- From Navigation Mailing List [mailto:NAVIGATION-L@LISTSERV.WEBKAHUNA.COM]On Behalf Of WSMurdoch@AOL.COM Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2001 6:57 PM To: NAVIGATION-L@LISTSERV.WEBKAHUNA.COM Subject: Re: Optimizing Ocean Current Crossings In a message dated 7/10/01 1:06:37 PM Eastern Daylight Time, danallen@NWLINK.COM writes: This is "Ocean passages for the world", third edition, 1973. (NP 136) Published by the Hydrographer of the Navy , Taunton, UK. I think that this was the last edition to include sailing-vessel information. I have the Fourth Edition, 1987, of NP 136. It includes in Part II (Chapters 8, 9, and 10; pages 182 - 260 plus a fold out world chart) the sailing routes. Bill Murdoch
