'A handy pocket size, it is an aide-memoire of everything a boater would need to know at sea.'

'This well-known pocket book reappears..in its fifth edition- testament to its continuing popularity since it was first published in 1993..A great aide memoire.'

'If you were allowed only one book on board, and it had to fit in your pocket, then this would have to be it...A good value aide memoir or revision tool'

'The fifth edition of Reeds Skipper's Handbook has been updated and expanded to provide more information on electronics as well as boat-handling and seamanship. The layout is logical and the table of contents and index are concise and complete for quick reference or for revision. It's a handy, small size for storage in the chart table or jacket pocket and the pages appear to survive a dousing without tearing or smudging.'
