Title: This is boat handling at close quarters
Description: Handling a boat skilfully at close quarter is a fundamental necessity as well as an art admired by others and more than often there are spectators in an anchorage, among moorings, alongside a quay, inside a lock or down a slipway.  In this book page after page of full colour life like drawings deal with every possible harbour movement for all types of yacht: heavy cruiser, high speed power vessel, short keel racer, lightly engine old timer and many others, steerable and not so steerable.   The authors have highlighted hundreds of different cases in a way which provides practical insight for the modern skipper – whatever type of craft he may own.
