The suggested retail price through the Google eBookstore is $6.99.

A mobile edition of the Fyddeye Guide is also available for the Amazon Kindle.

All editions include more than 2,000 easy-to-browse listings of historic ships, spectacular lighthouses, and intriguing maritime museums in the United States.
