he RYA Manual of Seamanship is the most comprehensive and practical guide to all aspects of seamanship. Well written and beautifully illustrated the book gives a modern definition of what Admiral Smythe described as ‘the noble art of seamanship’.
Expert instructions take you from the simplest task of how to coil a rope through to heavy weather boat-handling, and much, much more. There can be few authors better qualified to write on this subject than Tom Cunliffe, who has a lifetime not only of skippering yachts but also imparting those skills in a clear informative and inimitable style. Essential for anyone taking RYA Day Skipper, RYA Yachtmaster courses and a must have for anyone who goes to sea.
