"Indispensable . . . Don’t do the ICW
without it."

Powerboat Reports
Since 1979, this book has been the piloting guide of
choice for the tens of thousands of boaters traversing
the 1,094-mile Intracoastal Waterway between Virginia
and Florida each year. This sixth edition is double the
size of its predecessor and includes greatly enhanced
coverage of anchorages, pilotage, and facilities. With the
addition of John Kettlewell, editor of The Intracoastal
Waterway Chartbook, to the author team, the Moellers’
long-established mile-by-mile navigation guide is better
than ever.

Author comments
Bill Moeller and his wife, the late Jan Moeller, were cruising sailors and liveaboards for more than 20 years before moving aboard a "land yacht"-an RV--where they found a very similar lifestyle on America's highways.
John Kettlewell has cruised the waters between Labrador and the Caribbean with his wife, Leslie, for almost 30 years, often living aboard for long extended periods. He is a Commodore in the Seven Seas Cruising Association and has traversed the ICW between Norfolk and Miami two dozen times, most recently in 2007. John is a former editor for Reed's Nautical Almanac and for International Marine, and a former contributing editor for the Waterway Guides. John and Leslie conceived and edit The Intracoastal Waterway Chartbook, first published in 1992 and now entering its fifth edition.
