For a long time we spent as many as 250 days a year making delivery passages-over all kinds of water-in many different kinds of boats, both sail and power. From that experience we arrived at the concepts and techniques presented here. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Some of the techniques can be used every day, while others are for special occasions. But following the broad concepts of how to plan and execute a passage enabled us to make one after another, with a high degree of reliability and safety.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781450299527\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.55d","brand":"Patrick Ellam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38211190522037,"sku":"9781450299527","price":16.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_73b70390-dccd-4c10-a317-3a59c318ad31.jpg?v=1610428947","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/yacht-cruising-9781450299527","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
