One of the world's most experienced sea adventurers, the veteran of countless ocean voyages, including yacht deliveries on nearly every ocean, single-handed passages, and offshore cruises, has set down the wonderful collection of tricks, lore, shortcuts, techniques, and precautions that he has accumulated over the years.
As Ellam says, "This book is for the yachtsman-whether sail or power-who already knows how to handle a boat under normal conditions and is familiar with the principles of piloting and seamanship but who would like to know more about the problems he may encounter-and how to deal with them-when he undertakes longer passages than he ever has before. 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.
"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."
