Seamanship
One of the most difficult sections of the Library to produce, Seamanship & Boathandling has suffered a little in recent years as the original F&B team (then as The Boat Mag) and finally as Australian Boat Mag (ABM) put so much emphasis on DIY issues, plate boat building, boat tests and the like. However, we have recently completed several new reports on this vital matter, and as the ABM team spends more time on the water, we will be gathering the hard-to-get-in-an-office photographic material that brings this section to life. Mind you, we will not even try to emulate adventurer Hans Tholstrup’s magnificent voyage to Japan in a Haines Signature 542F. This marvellous report is worth downloading if only to read Tholstrup’s innovative ideas for surviving a cyclone or really heavy seas in a small boat. Also of note is Editor Peter Webster’s acclaimed reports “Rough Water Handling In A Plate Boat” or ”When is Rough Too Rough?” Both of these reports contain excellent hands-on advice for beginners and experts alike.
