All the vital aspects of seamanship are included; from estimated positions and tide tables to meteorology and maydays. Using full colour illustrations, the book follows the newly revised Yachtmaster syllabus and includes recent developments in electronic chart plotting and GPS.

Starting off with relatively simple questions, ideal for those new to boating, while the later exercises provide a useful challenge for the more experienced. Everything you need to help you answer the questions can be found within the book, including two RYA training charts.
