The RORC Manual of Safety and Survival at Sea (RORC Manuals)

by Dag Pike (Author)

Synopsis

For skippers and crews of motor or sailing yachts, this book shows how most emergencies can be avoided by good seamanship, and many others can be anticipated, and so readily brought under control, with the right mental attitude, equipment and procedures - whether facing fire, storm, collision damage or mechanical failure. For situations that do get out of hand, there are step-by-step guides to signalling for help, using lifeboats and lifesaving equipment, and taking measures and actions which will give the search and rescue emergency services the best chance of finding and helping you. The book includes examples, anecdotes and photographs of real-life emergencies at sea.
