Master Harbour Manoeuvres with Confidence

A visual step-by-step guide to safe and precise harbour manoeuvres, covering wind, tide, and docking scenarios.

Harbour Manoeuvres Step-by-Step is an essential visual guide for boat owners looking to master close-quarters handling. Whether navigating into your home marina or visiting an unfamiliar port, precise boat handling is critical to avoiding costly mishaps.

This unique, step-by-step photographic book provides clear instructions on where to position the boat and how to adjust the wheel, tiller, or throttle for each manoeuvre. With no brakes, and external forces like wind and tide at play, entering and leaving harbour can be one of the trickiest aspects of boat handling.

Acting as an instructor at your side, this book covers various scenarios, including berthing alongside with an onshore or offshore wind, handling favourable and contrary tides, and dealing with wind and tide acting together or against each other. Detailed bird's-eye step-by-step photos illustrate every action, making complex techniques easy to follow.

A valuable handbook, Harbour Manoeuvres Step-by-Step offers everything needed to develop confidence and control in critical harbour situations.
