4.0 out of 5 starsShiphandling views from someone who really does it
By S. Schenk Jr. on June 22, 2007
Format: Hardcover
As a Harbor Pilot who handles ships in and out on a daily basis, I recommend this book for someone who is going to get the hands on the job. It's stuffed with very helpful hints and tips that I still use after ten years on the profession. It could not be otherwise as the author is himself a pilot.

Besides, the author's narrative is really smooth and humorous what makes it not only a great book, technically speaking, but also turned it into a nice reading.

Only don't recommend it to graduate or postgraduate students interested in ship's dynamics as it lacks the mathematical tools necessary. But is great for some one who will actually handle ships.

5.0 out of 5 starsA Standard in the Industry
By David Henderson on December 26, 2012
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
This book is one of the standards of the industry. It has been overcome by the newer and flashier Nautical Institute books which cost more and have color pictures, but the information is largely a rehash of this text.

5.0 out of 5 starsShiphandling for the mariner
By Pedro Jácome on May 17, 2012
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
I bought this book because it is kind of mandatory if you are going to attend the exam for Brazilian Ship Pilots sponsored by Brazilian Navy.

This is a comprehensive book, technical but at the same time readable even to people not so involved with ship's manouver.

i read this book 4 times, and probably will read it again!

It has been quite useful on my studies. The way it is writen, with some funny drawings and phrases, helps during the reading to keep the attention.
