Reeds lights, shapes & buovoyage handbook

Ouvrage en langue anglaise.

It's easy to confuse (or forget) what particular lights, marks and shapes mean ? especially under stress or in the d'rk ? but with this handy book, help is qu'ckly at hand. L'id out simply & cl'arly for qu'ck accessibility, it enables crew, navigators, skippers and even casual day guests aboard to qu'ckly identify the lights, marks and shapes being displayed by other ships at night as well'as d'ring the day.

A ready reckoner reminder of:
-Cardinal buoys and channel markers
-Lights displayed by ships at night (tugs, d'edgers, pilot vessels, stationary vessels, fishing boats, yachts, motorboats) and from all'aspects (front, side, astern)
-Daytime shapes displayed by boats (e.g. for anchoring, towing, d'ving, d'edging)
-Ships' sound signals (used in fog)
-Signal flags and their navigational meanings (I am d'agging my anchor; You are running into danger; I have a d'ver d'wn).

These lights, shapes and marks are applicable worldwide, by maritime law, which makes this international handbook a val'able and popular addition to the Reeds Handbook series.
