In Fast Powerboat Seamanship, one of the worlds leading authorities on highspeed piloting and navigation shows you how to operate any fast boat for maximum thrill at minimum risk. Dag Pike describes the effects of hull design on performance and gives you a better understanding of how your boat is built. He explains how fast boats respond under a variety of conditions, and he walks you through everything you need to know about engines, propulsion systems, trim tabs, and the other controls that give you complete command of your craft. Pike provides a stepbystep tutorial in the techniques of fastboat driving and spells out the measures you can take to ensure comfort and safety for yourself and your passengers. He also explores the things you need to know about the sea itself: how waves are generated, how they move, and how to assess and adjust to changing conditions on the water. Youll learn how to adapt to the faster pace of events at 25 to 100 knots; navigate at high speed; and control a highspeed turn. Youll also learn techniques for avoiding collisions, operating in extreme weather, and much more.The better you understand your boat and how to control it, the greater the pleasure you will get from highperformance boating. Fast Powerboat Seamanship is the source for the specialized knowledge and skills you need to get the most out of any fast boat.
