Cruising Guides

Stodge

I was introduced to the Ports Guide to the North Channel and Georgian Bay when we were on our Lake Huron loop in 2017.  I found the guide to be very valuable.  The book was published in 2014 and I can't find out if there are any updates planed.

There is another guide I haven't looked at yet called Waterway Guide.  They have 2 Great Lakes version, both of which mention Georgian Bay.  We're planning a trip to Georgian Bay in 2021 and wonder if anybody has the Waterway Guide and can point me to which Great Lakes edition would cover Georgian Bay the best.

Just found out that the publisher of the Ports Guide will have the 2020 edition of the Georgian Bay guide for sale at the 2020 Toronto Boat Show.  I was already planning to attend so bonus.

@Stodge agree.....the Ports Guides are fantastic., they conatin great details of everything from harbour entrances to overview of things to do in the area, marina information, satellite shots of harbors, local repair facilities.....it goes on and on. Particularly like the distances between all ports chart! Wouldn't leave port without my "dog-eared" copy! :-)

Good one @Willhound - I too have been a member of the Great Lakes "Cursing" Club ......usually when watching someone use another guy's boat as a trampoline to get into a slip! :-)

@cruzan That's another resource I've looked at.
