Cockpit Companion cover

A handy, splash-proof, on-the-water aide memoire of everything the skipper and crew need to know – or find out quickly – when cruising: from lights, shapes and sound signals to knots, ropes and engine troubleshooting. With diagrams and illustrations throughout, this quick reference guide will help to keep you safe when out at sea.

“This is a very handy pocket reference booklet that gives a potted account of numerous topics. It's a concise 'distillation' of information. The diagrams are clear, particularly lights displayed or seen at night; so much better than a written description. A jolly good reminder, or a simple learning guide, whichever is required, and deserves a place on any cruiser's shelf.” (Yachting Monthly) "An excellent quick reference." (Sailing Magazine) "Not only a perfect companion for the cockpit, it would be a great booklet for anyone undertaking an RYA theory course." (Motorboat Owner)
