Seamanship Techniques by D J House

Seamanship Techniques by D J House

This third edition presents the most thorough revision of Seamanship Techniques since first publication in 1987. Already recognised as one of the leading texts for cadet and serving seafarers of all ranks, this new edition covers all the seamanship knowledge required by students and experienced seafarers alike. Ideal for Merchant Navy Officers from Cadet rank to Master Mariner, the new edition incorporates the 2003 amendments to the Collision Avoidance Regulations and new material covering regulations and practice on cargo operations, survival systems, GMDSS requirements, watch keeping duties, rescue operations and pollution control, to name a few. Used by training establishments around the world this is the only reference to both shipboard practice and ship operations that seafarers will need.

"This second edition has been revised to incorporate recent amendments to the Collision Regulations.. it allows mariners to benefit from the author's many years' experience, both as a lecturer and as a seafarer on many different types of vessel." Maritime Journal, 2001. "In part I the chapters on 'Wire work and rigging' and 'Lifting gear' are particularly good with very clear diagrams and descriptions. In part II the chapters on 'Preventing collisions at sea', 'Emergencies', 'Fire fighting' and 'Ship Handling' are all particularly worthy of mention, being extremely well written and lucid. This is an essential and practical guide for seamen..." Marine Engineer's Review, 1995
