Synopsis

Since it was first published, more than 25 years ago, The Elements of Seamanship by Roger C. Taylor, has been read and re-read by thousands of beginner and experienced boaters alike. Now it can be read again in this new updated and expanded edition from Flat Hammock Press. The book is a no-nonsense, straightforward and witty explanation of the practical sea sense gained by the author in his more than 70 years at sea. The 128-page paperback contains five simple chapters, a series of appendixes, a bibliography and an index. This new Third Edition includes the appendix "Keeping a Civil Tongue at Sea" which was in the original hardcover edition. "The Elements of Seamanshiphas always been my favorite seamanship book," says editor Bob McKenna. "It is the essential nautical reference. We asked Roger for the rights to republish it and he agreed to update it for us."
