Port manoeuvres step by step
Mooring and unmooring at jetties with piles, quay walls, piers with murings or the Roman Catholic way with bow anchors as well as buoys and finger pontoons.
When recreational boat owners were asked in a study what reasons prevented them from practising their hobby, they did not cite fear of storms or seasickness in first place. The main reason was the uncertainty of handling the boat in the harbour, the fear of a collision, of embarrassment.
This is where this book comes in:
Using photomontages, the important knowledge for harbour manoeuvres is presented in an easily understandable way. The ideal aid for owners and charterers. The authors also deal in detail with topics such as anchoring in bays and marinas, towing and being towed as well as the various man-overboard manoeuvres.
