The ideal reference book for anyone following the RYA day Skipper course.

• seamanship
• safety equipment
• preventing collisions at sea
• navigation and chart work
• tides and tidal streams
• pilotage and passage planning

• engine operation and maintenance
• VHF radio procedures

By the same author as the highly successful  Yachtmaster for S'il and power,  this lively, helpful guide is the perfect companion to the course, whether for s'il or power.
