Core Principles of Maritime Navigation by Alexander Arnfinn Olsen

Core Principles of Maritime Navigation introduces the main navigation concepts required by trainees and professionals involved in maritime operations. The book covers a wide range of subjects from wind, waves and depths to navigational marks and buoys, navigational techniques and equipment, passage planning, duties of the Officer of the Watch, berthing and anchorage. It is not intended to be a technical publication; rather, it aims to introduce core ideas and concepts in an accessible way for general readers, university students, cadets and for the continuous professional development of experienced seafarers.

"An ideal starter text for cadets who have no previous knowledge or experience of living and working at sea.. before the cadets start reading into the more technical aspects of their chosen career."

-- Hossein Enshaei, Australian Maritime College, University of Tasmania
