Handling Troubles Afloat

What to Do When It All Goes Wrong

John Mellor

What would you do if:

your engine failed in strong winds close to a rocky lee shore?
the rigging failed while you were beating out of a confined anchorage?
the tiller came off in your hand as you were maneuvering into a tight berth?
a fire broke out on board?
you were caught in a gale with a panicky, frightened crew?

This book is all about helping you keep your boat and crew out of trouble by anticipating problems and dealing with them before they become disasters.

In Handling Troubles Afloat, the author draws on his many years of experience to give solutions to a range of potential problems, so that by acting competently in a crisis you will be able to prevent a small setback from turning into a major emergency.
