  • Great Reference Book

    Chapman piloting and Seamanship is a wonderful reference text for everything to do with boating. For the most part the handling of the vessel is still valid for both sailing and motor cruisers but the navigation and electronics is now showing signs of being dated and later editions would be more up to date.
