5.0 out of 5 stars Sea Kayak the Gulf Is - best book May 26 2007
By C. Rush - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is the second copy I have purchased - I have kayaked the Gulf Is for many years and this book is extremely well written and organized, in fact better than any other I have read for the Pacific Northwest. I wish the author would write for areas already covered in other books and show them how.
