Summary

The navigator of a slow boat can afford to be relatively relaxed; if things go wrong, they usually do so slowly, allowing time to adapt to changing circumstances. Navigating motor boats, on the other hand, combines a motion that often makes it difficult to read and write with a rapid progress that makes fixes obsolete before they're even implemented. Unlike traditional navigation texts written for boats traveling at 25 knots or less, this book is designed specifically for navigators of faster motor boats. Explained in detail are considerations such as compasses and charts, tidal atlases, navigational aids, safe landfall, planning a passage, and tips for thinking on your feet.
