Synopsis The Complete Book of Anchoring and Mooring by : Earl R. Hinz
The Complete Book addresses anchoring systems, techniques, and permanent moorings for boats from 12 to 80 feet in length. It covers monohulls, multihulls, light displacement sailboats, cruisers, sportfishers, passagemakers, and workboats. In short, it is for all recreational and working boats in this size range. The book deals not only with anchor behavior, but also with the rode assembly, riding stoppers, and the human factors. What formerly was thought of as strength through size (heavy anchors and large rodes) has been refined to decrease weight, lighten loads on the boat, and reduce difficulty in handling. Utilizing a systems approach with respect to equipment and techniques and analytical methods for loads, Earl R. Hinz has made a number of contributions to the state of the art. Among them are bow anchor roller design, chain locker and navel pipe design, elastic anchoring techniques, tandem anchor systems design, and designs for permanent moorings. Sections on ground tackle selection, tandem anchoring techniques, anchoring in coral, and improving hurricane moorings have been revised. Most of these designs and techniques are clearly illustrated in the schematic drawings by Richard R. Rhodes. The latest information on electric windlass troubleshooting, new anchor designs, anchor test data, use of screw anchors for more secure moorings, design of moorings for coral seabeds, and anchoring jurisdictional conflicts makes this second edition a state-of-the-art source book for the boating world.

Synopsis Hearst Marine Books Complete Guide to Anchoring and Line Handling by : David Geren Brown
"As every boat owner knows, proper line handling is essential to the safe operation of every power- and sailboat. This book focuses on the practical - and time-saving - aspects of line handling. Areas covered range from mooring and docking to anchoring and sailboat running rigging. You'll learn how to select, handle, and knot synthetic rope; tie your boat safely for the night or the season; rig fenders and chafing gear to protect your boat; choose a safe overnight anchorage; make your anchor hold, then get it back again; navigate river and canal locks; tow a dinghy without hassles; heave a line ashore or to another boat; tow another boat in an emergency (and when not to); improve your boat's deck hardware; and much, much more!" "This guide also covers the techniques and assorted hardware for using line effectively, from riding out a storm at anchor to setting up a permanent mooring."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
