Year: 1990 Language: english Author: Richard Henderson Genre: Handbook Publisher: International Marine Publishing Edition: Third ISBN: 978-0877422709 Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 376 Description: Mix seamanship with common sense, and you get sense, a quality hard to define but easy to recognize. A well-executed docking, a trim vessel stocked with tools and replacement parts, a conscientiously maintained engine, a properly designed and metered electrical system, a safe deck layout with good footing and strategic hand-holds, and the habit of thinking two steps ahead at all times are just a few of many faces of sea sense. Sea sense is honed and hardened by experience, but its essentials can be taught, as this book aims to do. Whether you are a sailor or powerboater, whether you are venturing out of sheltered water for the first time or graduating from short offshore passages to extended blue-water voyaging, Sea Sense offer valuable advice about all aspects of preparation and challenges underway. For its third edition, Sea Sense is expanded and completely revised. The added topics include analyses of hull stability, new safety equipment, tall ship losses, osmotic blistering in fiberglass, revised thinking on multihulls, updated survey methods, the latest man-overboard systems, hypothermia and crew welfare, faulty navigation, helicopter rescue, weather bombs and microbursts, recently developed heavy- weather strategies (including high-speed scudding and series drogues), hurricane preparedness in port, rig scantlings, new techniques of sail reduction, and survival tactics in the ultimate storm.

Description: Mix seamanship with common sense, and you get sense, a quality
hard to define but easy to recognize. A well-executed docking, a trim vessel
stocked with tools and replacement parts, a conscientiously maintained engine,
a properly designed and metered electrical system, a safe deck layout with
good footing and strategic hand-holds, and the habit of thinking two steps
ahead at all times are just a few of many faces of sea sense.
Sea sense is honed and hardened by experience, but its essentials can be
taught, as this book aims to do. Whether you are a sailor or powerboater,
whether you are venturing out of sheltered water for the first time or graduating
from short offshore passages to extended blue-water voyaging, Sea Sense offer
valuable advice about all aspects of preparation and challenges underway.
For its third edition, Sea Sense is expanded and completely revised.
The added topics include analyses of hull stability, new safety equipment,
tall ship losses, osmotic blistering in fiberglass, revised thinking on multihulls,
updated survey methods, the latest man-overboard systems, hypothermia and
crew welfare, faulty navigation, helicopter rescue, weather bombs and microbursts,
recently developed heavy- weather strategies (including high-speed scudding and
series drogues), hurricane preparedness in port, rig scantlings, new techniques of
sail reduction, and survival tactics in the ultimate storm.
