A CRUISING GUIDE to the LESSER ANTILLES

About the Book

This book is Street’s second guide. The first was a mimeographed guide to the Virgin Islands published privately in 1964. That guide opened up the Virgin Islands to the visiting cruising yachtsman and made bare boat chartering possible. This book, Streets second guide, became “The Bible” for all yachtsmen cruising the Lesser Antilles.

About the Author

D. M. Street Jr. as a young man age 26, fled the rat race of New York and arrived in St. Thomas in November 1956. There he bought the 52 year old 46-ft. engineless cutter Lolaire soon after he arrived. He proceeded to cruise, charter, explore through the islands. Street with his late wife Marilyn and daughter Dory (aged 2) were the first foreign yacht to explore the east coast of Martinique (1964). This all lead to nine guides and three other yachting books.
