Royal Cruising Club Pilotage Foundation

The Royal Cruising Club Pilotage Foundation produces some of sailing's most respected ocean cruising guides. Our collection presents their authoritative volumes covering waters from the Atlantic to the Pacific – including ocean routes, remote regions, and challenging coastlines.

Founded in 1976 but drawing on the Royal Cruising Club's century of cruising expertise, the Foundation develops guides written by experienced sailors with genuine knowledge of their regions. Each combines practical navigation information with essential context on weather patterns, facilities, and local protocols for distant waters.

For ambitious cruisers venturing beyond familiar European waters, these meticulously researched guides provide the reliable information that successful ocean passages demand.
