WELL-FAVORED PASSAGE -- The Magic of Lake Huron's North Channel

by Pixie Haughwout and Ralph Folsom

This is the classic cruising guide to this fabled destination. The pristine North Channel, home to thousands of islands, links Georgian Bay to Lake Superior and is largely in Canadian waters.

 

Marjorie Cahn Brazer's last edition has been updated and expanded by two long-time cruisers who share her love of boats and books. Islands and anchorages, wilderness and ports of call, history and legends, wild blueberries and ice cream are presented with an eye for North Channel magic.

Practical and intimate, this updated edition showcases digital graphics, carefully selected anchorages and harbors, lots of little-known gunkholes, and more stories and tales. Details on launch ramps, charter companies, farmers markets, recommended restaurants, customs, clearance, fishing, weather, navigation and Internet access are included. ________________________________________________________________

From the Preface

What attracted us to Well-Favored Passage was Marjorie Cahn Brazer's intimacy with the extraordinary beauty, history and magic of cruising the North Channel. An exquisite writer, she added depth and pleasure to our cruising experience. We have tried to expand upon her special appreciation of the North Channel. The result is practical and intimate guide to the best cruising ground in North America and the cream of the Great Circle Loop.
