The Reeds Eastern Almanac is designed specifically for the UK East Coast and the Dutch and Belgian coastlines. It offers ready access to essential information by virtue of its clear layout and user-friendly format. Topics include pilotage, tides, safety, navigation, radio, lights, waypoints, weather forecast information around UK and European waters, communications, Mayday and distress procedures. Spiral binding allows the almanac to be opened flat on the chart table and the large type size and clearer improved layout makes information easy to read even in adverse conditions. Covering the UK east coast from Ramsgate to Cape Wrath including the Shetland & Orkney Islands, plus the Belgian and Dutch coasts, it is the complete guide for North Sea mariners.
