Download or read book A Manual of Elementary Seamanship Classic Reprint written by D. Wilson-Barker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-06-11 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Elementary Seamanship This Edition has been revised and brought up to date. It includes a copy Of the last Rules of the Road to be learnt by heart for the Board of Trade Examinations. Students are advised to make small models with which to practise the different evolutions and to exercise themselves in signalling. Seamanship is the art of handling a Ship with all its appurtenances and crew. It includes navigation, pilot age, anchoring, avoidance of collision, cargo work, &c. Theoretically its basis is in mathematics and physics. In practice, nerve, judgment, and above all experience make the capable seaman. Sailors, as a class, are conservative and opposed to change. I would urge all young sailors to study their profession carefully, and to keep themselves informed on all matters connected with it; an easy matter now that so many excellent technical papers are devoted to the progress and welfare Of the profession. Whether a young man elects to start in sail or steam he has a wide scope for the putting forth of all his energy and intelligence, if he takes his work in earnest. There is a mistaken idea in some quarters that in Steam there is nothing to learn. The exact contrary to the fact. Quite as much nautical knowledge and skill is required as in a sailing Ship, though the application is somewhat different.

Book excerpt: Almost 800 pages . 12,764 Definitions. The Most Complete Reference of Its Kind It's one thing to compile a dictionary of nautical terms from the Age of Sail; but it's quite another when the people doing the compiling actually lived them. That is exactly the situation in The Sailor's Word. William Henry Smyth (1788-1865) was in the Royal Navy for over 25 years, rising from a ship's boy on a West India merchantman to a Royal Navy Admiral. In addition to commanding several Royal Navy ships, he became world famous as a hydrographer (some of his charts were still in use in the 1960's), and as an astronomer (he eventually became president of the Royal Astronomical Society). The last years of his life, however, were spent compiling The Sailor's Word from his vast storehouse of nautical experience; but he died before he could see it published. His family decided to go forth with the publication of his final work. Their selection of an editor couldn't have been better: Sir Edward Belcher (1799-1877). Sir Edward was a Royal Navy officer with even more experience than Smyth. In his 40 years of service he captained numerous ships and generated a well-deserved reputation as a naval surveyor. His final command was of the unsuccessful expedition to find the missing and ill-fated explorer, Sir John Franklin. A cousin of Frederick Marryat, it can be plausibly argued that his novel, Horatio Howard Brenton, was the real model for C.S. Forester's Horatio Hornblower. If you want to understand modern nautical fiction, you have to understand the language they used and the way they actually used it-not the way you think they used it.
