[JDPUB: 144] All Aboard! Ships, Ports, Cruises - a Southern African Guide by David Hughes

 

 

ALL ABOARD! - Ships, Ports, Cruises – a Southern African Guide by David Hughes published by Just Done Productions Publishing. R550

 

“One of the main purposes of this guide is to provide a background on cruise liners that call at South African ports, voyage opportunities presently available and a user-friendly reference for “first-timers” at sea!

The various sections, with their own explanatory notes, show how useful (and interesting) it can become to follow the routes of “The Liners”.  The man-in-the-street can now differentiate between the different shipping lines and their ships seen at the country’s passenger terminals.  Know the livery (that’s funnel and hull colours) whether a ship belongs to Silversea Cruises or Voyages of Discovery.  Compare tonnages, passenger capacity, and other details of general interest.  In other words, become an instant “Shipwatcher” and soon you may end up being addicted to Cruiseliner Life...

This book has been planned as a guide to show would-be-cruisers, as well as the regular cruise aficionados, the variety and scope of voyages available out there.

Voyages aboard cargo vessels (alternative cruising?) are covered as well as the big liners, so a wide choice exists.”    David Hughes
