New Book

Came across a new book that looks interesting. Dag Pike is well known in boating circles and has just had published "Fast Powerboat Seamanship" by McGrawHill. It arrived today (via Amazon) and looks good. Price £19.99.

Seems to have a RIB section and some good stuff on rough water

For those interested Dag Pike also wrote "Fast Boats & Rough Seas" which is excellent albeit out of print - but available if you look around.
