Samenvatting

Motor Boating Basics is the ultimate collection of visually clear and appealing 'how-to' guides on all aspects of motor boat handling and ownership.

These guides are designed to make motor boating as easy and accessible as possible, for even the newest of motor boaters. Each feature follows the same easy-approach format covering a topic, with an introduction followed by six simple, illustrated steps to show the reader exactly what they need to do at each stage of the process.

This book is an ideal introduction to motor boat ownership, driving and maintenance, and covers topics on:
- Essential skills (knots, tying up your boat, using a pile mooring, coiling mooring lines, lassoing a cleat)
- Safety (recovering an MOB, fitting a lifejacket, using a VHF, setting up a radar, mooring on one engine)
- Navigation (creating a route, following a route, pilotage skills)
- Boat maintenance (antifouling, changing an impeller, polishing your boat, replacing anodes)
- Berthing (arriving, leaving, tying up, moving sideways, handling a single-engined boat, single-handed driving, using springs, manoeuvring in windy conditions, pile moorings, IPS boats, using a bow thruster)
- Boat handling (fast turns, throttle and trim, turning in a tight space, ferry gliding, beam trim, heading to windward, heading downwind, rough weather)

By breaking everything down into easy to follow steps, even the most inexperienced boater can master new skills quickly, and old hands will find something new in the useful hints and tips added by the author Jon Mendez, a former RYA instructor/examiner and one of the most highly respected motor boat skippers and trainers in the business. Each topic also has a link to an accompanying video that shows the full manoeuvre, with additional commentary from the author.
