RYA Passage Planning

Chennell covers all the details involved in planning a safe and successful long-distance passage. Chapters offer strategies for dealing with tidal points and traffic, and discussions of hard and soft hazards, boat types and fuel, instruments, and communication. Chennell illustrates his points with examples from different types of boats, including a 33-foot motor cruiser, a 40-foot sloop, and a 50-foot ketch.
