L-178. Chapman, Charles F. PILOTING, SEAMANSHIP AND SMALL BOAT HANDLING – A Practical Treatise Dealing With Those Branches of Motor Boating with Which Every Yachtsman Should Be Familiar. New York. 1953. 500 p.  Chapman Piloting, Seamanship & Small Boat Handling has always been the most comprehensive and authoritative reference guide to recreational boating, even after three quarters of a century. This series was developed in 1917 by pioneering small-craft enthusiast and Motor Boating magazine editor Charles F. Chapman. Chapman Piloting covers the gamut of information that both the fledgling boater and seasoned mariner need to know. Includes updated sections on basic piloting procedures, sailboat and powerboat seamanship, charts and compasses, tides and weather, and boating equipment, as well as all the official boating laws and regulations governing the nation’s waterways, navigation, procedures for emergencies, and more. Without question, Chapman Piloting remains a standard text for boating schools and has long stood as a ready and dependable first mate in wheelhouses of power boaters and sail boaters alike. Hundreds of illustrations. Contents clean and tight, covers light wear. (VG).  $24.
