Review: Great Sailing book - So happy to receive my Coastal Cruising made easy. Great graphics throughout and practical on board info to keep you safe and keep you sailing. Book arrived fast and in great shape. Thanks, Following Seas. Review: New to sailing? Buy this book after you purchase "Sailing Made Easy", but before any other book out there. - The ASA manual for its ASA 103 sailing course. As with all ASA books, packed with relavant information. Tip for those new to sailing who would like to learn more about the basics, cruising, and possibly live- aboard....I would buy the three ASA books before any other. Sailing Made Easy for basic sailing (ASA Keelboard 101 manual), Coastal Cruising Made Easy for basic cruising instruction and information (ASA 103 manual), and Bareboat Cruising Made Easy for more advanced cruising (ASA 104 manual). Wait to purchase all of the other sailing books out there until you read these. ## Features - Full color, richly illustrated, 176-pages ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #54,884 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #3 in Instructional Sailing | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 305 Reviews | ## Images ![Coastal Cruising Made Easy - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91GUQt1+9kL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Sailing book *by P***S on January 17, 2019* So happy to receive my Coastal Cruising made easy.

Coastal Cruising Made Easy picks up where that book left off, and is written in a very similar style. It's packed with information, pictures diagrams but presents everything in a concise manner that's quick to read and easy to digest. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/62909492-coastal-cruising-made-easy](https://www.desertcart.no/products/62909492-coastal-cruising-made-easy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
