Year: 1979 Language: english Author: F. M. Hedrick Genre: Practical guide Publisher: International Marine ISBN: 0-87742-104-8 Format: PDF Quality: OCR without errors Pages count: 160 Description: This volume attempts to deal with the problem by gathering and arranging essential information that seems the most useful for small vessel passages; by supplying answers to questions most often asked aboard small vessels; and by putting this material into note, abbreviated, or summarized form so that the result is an easily portable volume, a handy book that should be an infor¬ mative shipmate on a passage to anywhere, and yet still fit into a duffel bag. Material selected for inclusion in this volume is usable on all vessels. Smaller, slower vessels, however, are more subject to winds and currents than larger vessels —in the length of exposure and in the relative effect that seas and currents have on their mo¬ tion, steering, and speed. Added vigilance is often essential on smaller vessels, and for this reason, relevant sections in this book have been made more extensive. The purpose of this book is to provide a handy reference for crews already at sea. Accordingly, the presentation assumes some familiarity with seagoing subjects.
