Skipper Bob™ Publications Skipper Bob and his wife Elaine cruised more than 44,000 miles on the East Coast of the United States. Their travels have taken them up and down the Intracoastal Waterway numerous times. They completed the Great Loop Route and sailed to both the Bahamas and the Dry Tortugas. They took their trawler through the Erie, Rideau, Richelieu, and Trent Severn Canals. Living aboard for more than 9 years on both a sail boat and a trawler, they have experienced just about everything the waters of the East Coast have to offer. Skipper Bob has published a series of guides that will make your travels on these waterways much easier, safer and less expensive. Information about these publications, ordering publications and recent updates on the waterways are available as links from this web page.

Our goal has always been to provide you with useful information to make your journeys safe, affordable and enjoyable. Since Bob’s passing in December of 2006 I have been working hard to maintain this information while searching for the right someone to take over the responsibility. I feel that there needs to be a man at the helm who is knowledgeable and loves cruising. I am very pleased to announce that the experienced folks at Waterway Guide have agreed to continue the legacy that we established over the past13 years. Ted Stehle, well known to most of you as Waterway Guide’s web site news editor, is assuming the additional responsibility as editor for Skipper Bob Publications and the Skipper Bob web site. Ted can be reached at tstehle@skipperbob.net and welcomes your questions and updates for Skipper Bob Publications For 60 years Waterway Guide has been providing accurate and up-to-date information to cruisers. Their crews of on-the-water writers provide factual, non-opinionated information of the same quality and detail that Bob insisted on. Jack Dozier, publisher of Waterway Guide, assures me that no major changes are planned in the Skipper Bob publications and web site. His aim is to keep them as accurate and informative as possible, following the guidelines that make Skipper Bob’s guides so very popular. Jack and his wife, Craig, are avid cruisers and also own marinas in Virginia. This has given them an in-depth understanding of what works for fellow cruisers. My involvement with Skipper Bob Publications is not ending. I am looking forward to seeing you at events and rendezvous as I continue to represent Skipper Bob Publications. Thank you for all the support you have given to me these past 10 months and thank you for making our guides a success. Happy cruising, Elaine 717-479-5012 ELReib@comcast.net Waterway Guide, The Cruising Authority since 1947, will make your cruising resource library complete.
