A veteran tanker captain provides a comprehensive guide to the essential skills and dynamics involved in handling big ships. From working with scale model ships at the Shiphandling Training Center at Port Revel, France, to maneuvering oil tankers through the Port of Sidon in Lebanon, Captain Henry H. Hooyer has handled ships of all sizes through all kinds of situations. Now he shares his technical expertise in this detailed and authoritative manual. Captain Hooyer covers the various dynamics of ships moving through water, demonstrating how the forces acting on the ship will determine your approach to steering, speed, stopping, anchoring, and berthing. Chapters include The Peripatetic Pivot Point, Rudder and Propeller, Wind, Current, Narrow Channels, and more.
