John Jamieson - Seamanship Secrets: 185 Tips & Techniques for Better Navigation, Cruise Planning, and Boat Handling Under Power or Sail
2009 | ISBN: 0071605789 | English | 336 pages | PDF | 22 MB

Distilled from the vast accumulated lore of seamanship and navigation, here are the absolute essentials–185 techniques that work without fail in the pilothouse or the exposed cockpit or flying bridge of a shorthanded sail- or powerboat. John Jamieson shows you how to:

Set up a clipboard chart table for cockpit use
Avoid hazards with danger bearings or a GPS grid highway
Estimate current speeds with the 50-90-100 rule
Track other boats in poor visibility using radar plots and bearing drift
Sail home without a rudder or get your twin-screw boat home on one working engine
Dock or anchor under any conditions
And much, much more
