Surprised that your navigation list doesn’t include Frank and Margaret Dye. Their “Open-boat Cruising: Coastal and Inland Waters” is a 40 year old classic.

Enjoyed watching this last year and it was the first thing on my list this morning after making
coffee. Putting a couple of logs in the fireplace and going to get some more wood for tonight.
Will probably watch it again as the snow comes to make 3 to 6 inches by morning. Then start
The Ariel’s orange walker and get to work.
Thanks again for his presentation
