5.0 out of 5 stars
Advanced Offshore sailing guide, ASA108 material, December 22, 2007
This review is from: Advanced Bluewater Cruising (Paperback)
This book was issued to us ASA108 (Offshore Passagemaking) students prior to the required 14 day offshore passage of 1000 nm. The ASA108 course requires you to read a list of books on offshore subjects. Having read the entire list in preparation for my ASA108 certification I have to say that this book includes a good cross section of all the required knowledge. Starting with selecting a sail boat for an offshore passage, over hull stability and righting angles, crew selection, leadership, navigation strategy, weather, medical issues, sail repair all the way to personal affairs are covered in 315 pages. Paperback print makes it easy to travel with and if you want to read one book instead of 8, read this one.
