The Reeds Looseleaf Update Pack provides all the information
required to navigate Atlantic coastal waters around the UK,
Ireland, Channel Islands, and the entire European coastline from
the tip of Denmark right down to Gibraltar, the Azores and Madeira.
A versatile system that combines almanac and pilotage information
in a convenient looseleaf form, the Looseleaf Almanac is inserted
into a durable binder which stays open on the chart table and lets
the user tailor the Almanac to their needs by personalising the
contents supplied with whatever information they may want to add or
take out. The Update Pack 2024 is for those who have bought the
Reeds Looseleaf Almanac in previous years and just want to update
their information rather than buy the binder again. Includes 700
harbour chartlets, harbour facilities, tide tables and streams,
7,500 waypoints, international codes and flags, weather, distance
tables, passage advice, area planning charts, rules of the road,
radio information, communications, safety, documentation and
customs. The 2023 edition is updated throughout, containing over
45,000 changes. Also includes a free Reeds Marina Guide. Also
available: free supplements of up-to-date navigation changes from

Here are the basics: the physics of sailing, the theory of sail,
ship handling under sail and power, the diesel engine, electrics
and electronic. Here is an introduction to navigation piloting,
celestial, and electronic, the Nautical Almanac, the sextant,
plotting, and a marvelous section called "Ten Easy Steps to Success

Ancient Ocean Crossings paints a compelling picture of impressive
pre-Columbian cultures and Old World civilizations that, contrary
to many prevailing notions, were not isolated from one another,
evolving independently, each in its own hemisphere. Instead, they
constituted a "global ecumene," involving a complex pattern of
intermittent but numerous and profoundly consequential contacts. In
Ancient Ocean Crossings: Reconsidering the Case for Contacts with
the Pre-Columbian Americas, Stephen Jett encourages readers to
reevaluate the common belief that there was no significant contact
between the emerging civilizations of Eurasia and Africa and
peoples who occupied the terra incognita beyond the great oceans.
More than a hundred centuries separate the time that Ice Age
hunters are conventionally thought to have crossed a land bridge
from Asia into North America and the arrival of Columbus in the
Bahamas in 1492. Traditional belief has long held that earth's two
hemispheres were essentially cut off from one another as a result
of the post-Pleistocene meltwater-fed rising oceans. These oceans,
along with deserts and mountains, formed impermeable barriers to
interhemispheric communication. This viewpoint implies that the
cultures of the Old World and those of the Americas developed
independently. Drawing on abundant evidence to support his theory
for significant pre-Columbian contacts, Jett suggests that many
ancient peoples had both the seafaring capabilities and the motives
to cross the oceans and, in fact, did so repeatedly and with great
impact. His deep and broad work synthesizes information and ideas
from archaeology, geography, linguistics, climatology,
oceanography, ethnobotany, genetics, medicine, and the history of
navigation and seafaring, making an innovative and persuasive
multidisciplinary case for a new understanding of human societies
and their diffuse but interconnected development.
