Product Description
This is the most authoritative boating guide on the Potomac River from Washington DC to the Chesapeake Bay. The book has been useful to mega-yachters, kayakers, and vehicle drivers traveling along the roads near the Potomac River. This guide addresses Potomac River marinas, restaurants, museums, and points of interest. The book is enhanced with 88 black and white photographs, 35 NOAA chart extracts, 38 marina dock sketches, 46 useful GPS waypoints, and five shoreside locality sketches. Like all Heron Island Guides, this one is loaded with history and geography making it deeper and more satisfying than many other guidebooks.
About The Author
Captain Rick Rhodes has lived on boats in the Potomac River during most of the 1980's and 1990's. His sailboat was primarily based on the lower Potomac, while his powerboat was usually docked in Washington. This is the third guide written by Captain Rhodes since leaving the Peace Corps in 2000.
