Your navigation software and GPS tell you where you are, Johansen's Handbook helps you decide where you want to be on your trip from Seattle to Ketchikan
 
Johansen's Handbook was inspired by "Hansen's Handbook" copyright 1931. The Hansen's Handbook was compiled mainly for shipping traffic from Puget Sound to Western Alaska including the inside passage from Seattle to Ketchikan. Johansen's Handbook expands on the Seattle to Ketchikan route by adding anchorages, harbors. routes and alternate routes. Since we are in the age of computers Johansen's Handbook comes on a CD and includes dynamic calculators.
 


The author, Bill Johansen, is an experienced seaman. Commercial fishing in Alaska for twenty years made for many trips up and down the inside passage. Johansen's Handbook includes US Coast Pilot and Canadian Sailing Directions for the anchorages and harbors listed in the Route Directory.

Johansen's Handbook was designed to be user friendly. It is color coded to easily identify links to the various information available to you.
