The UK Royal Navy’s classic work on maritime navigation has been thoroughly updated to bring it into the era of electronic navigation. Now in its eleventh edition, The Admiralty Manual of Navigation, Vol 1 – The Principles of Navigation provides authoritative guidance on the fundamental principles of marine navigation.
While the most significant change is the focus on use of ECDIS, the importance of being able to navigate by traditional methods is fully recognised. This book contains everything the navigator needs to plan a passage from berth to berth, including pilotage, coastal navigation, ocean passages and anchorages.
