About this title

Synopsis:

This, new edition of the bestselling RYA Navigation Exercises is the official, recommended book for RYA Day Skipper, Yachtmaster and the Basic 2-Day Navigation and Safety Course and contains everything you will need to help answer the questions in the book. It is the only book that uses the new RYA Training Charts used for RYA Training Courses. Whether you are taking a RYA Course or not, these exercises provide essential practice for anyone who goes to sea. The questions start with those simple enough for anyone new to navigation and progressively become more difficult- a useful challenge for the more experienced navigator.

From the Publisher:

As co-authors of the Yachtmaster and Dayskipper test papers, Chris Slade and Sara Hopkinson have compiled an invaluable selection of practice exercises with answers.

All the vital aspects of seamanship are included; from estimated positions and tide tables to meteorology and maydays. Using full colour illustrations, the book follows the newly revised Yachtmaster syllabus and includes recent developments in electronic chart plotting and GPS.

Starting off with relatively simple questions, ideal for those new to boating, while the later exercises provide a useful challenge for the more experienced. Everything you need to help you answer the questions can be found within the book, including two RYA training charts.
