May I introduce the website Cruising-Cape-Breton.info that I maintain with the support of others in the cruising community. It is intended to provide cruisers with the necessary information for a successful cruise of Cape Breton Island.
This is a purely volunteer project. It neither carries nor accepts any advertising, and generates no income.

DenysAll information can be downloaded for free, including an app, which runs on a laptop or tablet without need of the Internet.

Last year the eBook of Bras d’Or Lake chartlets (89 pages) had over 2,500 downloads.
