Following the pioneering work of the legendary Adlard Coles, the
book was passed to Captain John Coote RN in 1982. In his
comparatively short, ten-year tenure, John Coote expanded the
coverage from the English coast to include northern France. He also
applied a characteristic humour to the shoreside aspect of the text
which has been enthusiastically adopted by Tom Cunliffe, the
present and third compiler of this unique work. This is a revised
8th edition published by Imray under Cunliffe's hand. 'Shell' is
more than a harbour guide. It also provides a reassuring hand on
the shoulder for Channel navigation, with useful passage notes
gleaned from the compiler's personal experience of more than 40
years running the tides and finding the eddies. His frank remarks
regarding harbour and recreational facilities have long been relied
upon by sailors of all generations and nationalities. While leading
to some enlightening secrets, they have been known to cause
landlords whose establishments fall short of the required standard
to lose the will to live. Working with harbourmasters and a
dedicated group of carefully selected yachtsmen and women, Cunliffe
has kept this pilot as up to date as is humanly possible. More than
being technically sound, which is to be expected from a Yachtmaster
Examiner, the book is also a thoroughly enjoyable read. Imray
