For the sailor who’s always dreaming about the next horizon. In this entry in his popular Fifty Places series, Chris Santella asks a crew of championship racers and seasoned adventurers to share their favorite places to sail around the world. Contributors include America’s Cup sailors Tom Whidden and Gary Jobson and sailing writer Lin Pardey. Their picks range from classic East Coast harbors like Marblehead and Annapolis to tropical hideaways like Brazil’s Ilha Grande and the Polynesian atoll of Mopelia, and even to the notoriously rough waters around Cape Horn. Each destination comes with a story from the sailor who recommended it and a photograph that will make you want to cast off. Living in a harbor town, we know a few sailors who would love this one. It’s a great gift for boat owners, racers, and armchair sailors alike, and it pairs nicely with the Simon Pearce glass sailboat.
