I purchased the book as a Christmas gift for my son-in-law who is a somewhat experienced power boater. I hope he gets as much from it as he can.

Comments about Chapman Book of Piloting and Seamanship - 66th Edition:
The most important things about handling a boat are often learned when the conditions are difficult and an unpleasant experience inhibits learning or even a return to the water. Spending some time with this book gives you a better understanding of what the captain is doing so you can be a better deckhand.
