Customer Reviews

A must have for sailors!

This book is packed with very good info. If you are a sailing family like us, or just like boating you will find something that interests you in this book. It's so good we keep it on our sailboat for quick reference.

Authoritative

Don Dodds explains in a very readable no-nonsense manner the science behind anchoring, weather, navigation and just about everything else for the serious mariner. At first the science was a little daunting but understanding proved utterly rewarding. This is an invaluable reference book by a very experienced sailor that will remain permanently in the boat library.
