We all rely on charts to navigate at sea - but are we missing
essential information? A mass of data is included on each chart and
deciphering the many symbols and abbreviations can be complicated.
The accuracy of some charted depths can be trusted entirely while
others should be treated with caution. This book will tell you
where to find and how to understand this vital knowledge. This
updated second edition explains how charts are compiled before
guiding you through the elements that make up these vital
navigational tools. Improve your understanding of charts and you
will navigate with increased safety and confidence. Understanding a
Nautical Chart offers superb value as, in addition to a wealth of
practical advice, there is a key to all the recently updated chart
symbols and abbreviations from Symbols and Abbreviations Used on
Admiralty Charts (5011). It includes information on electronic
charts, explains how to update a chart and how to establish the
accuracy of each chart. It is ideal for professional mariners and
leisure sailors.
