Book Pilots

    Book Details:
  • Author : Tom Cunliffe
  • Publisher : Wooden Boat Pub
  • Release : 2002
  • ISBN : 9780937822760
  • Pages : 347 pages

Download or read book Pilots written by Tom Cunliffe and published by Wooden Boat Pub. This book was released on 2002 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PILOTSThe World of Pilotage Under Sail and OarVolume 2 Schooners and Open Boats of the European Pilots and Watermen The first volume of Pilots concentrated on the stories of American and British schooners. Volume 2 enters what for many will be a less familiar world... that of the remarkable pilot brigs and the small undecked craft . Schooners range from the Hiates of Portugal to the beautiful station boats of the North Sea ports of Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium, and France. The development of the schooners themselves into such highly sophisticated craft as the Orphie of Dunkirk is traced from regional predecessors typified by the Dunkirk Korver and the Rinkelaar from The Netherlands. Volume 2 of Pilots is not just about boats--the sailors also have their role. The book follows highly difficult maneuvers under sail, dangerous transfers at sea, the routine of everyday life, and the perils of heavy weather including ships wrecked and lives saved. All aspects of a spectacular and previously unpublished maritime tradition are considered, not forgetting the question of competition. European pilots, in general, preferred to operate as organized bodies to avoid the results of excessive rivalry. Nonetheless, crews still wanted to be the best, and when different nationalities worked the same stretch of water, in particular the Scheldt between Belgium and Holland, the inevitable disagreements could erupt into violence.
