There have been many books written about boating, and many books written about boat angling – but none about owning and running a small boat written with the requirements of boat anglers in mind. Anglers use their boats very differently from other boating enthusiasts, yet many of the fundamental principles of boat handling, safety and terminology are the same. On the other hand, some of the knowledge required is specific to the sport of boat angling. This book brings together all the subjects of interest to anglers moving into the world of small boat ownership, or to the amateur boat owner. Read independent reviews here.

The book covers the following subjects:

• Why buy a boat
• Types of boat to chose from
• Where to keep your boat
• Equipment and safety
• Launching and Recovery
• Boat handling – under way
• Boat handling – mooring
• Boat handling – at sea
• Fishing marks
• Tides
• Weather Forecasts
• Basic navigation
• Anchoring
• VHF Radios
• Ropes and Knots
• Looking after yourself
• What to do if things go wrong
• Basic maintenance and DIY tips
• Appendices containing references,
  glossary of maritime terms, safety cards
  and  templates for record sheets.
