This handy book describes 60 safe, viable and feasible routes between the Kent, Essex and Suffolk rivers for a safe passage and wholly new time-planning tables which have now been simplified with significantly additional and readily available information.
Now on its third edition, the book retains all the popular features describing and illustrating each sector of each route, with waypoints and ââ¬ÃÅrolling roadââ¬Ã¢¢ diagrams, providing information and advice about potential or permanent hazards, the implications for the tide and guidance about shipping routes and anchorages.
Also included are new and unique passage planning tables which are simple, accurate and quick to use. Readers can select the most appropriate start time and will instantly see their predicted arrival time, so as to have sufficient time to continue up river to an ultimate destination. Options are offered for every 30 minutes of the day, whatever the day. The tables not only provide the best predicted start time ââ¬Ã¢¬Å for the quickest passage duration - for each route at 4, 5, 6 or 7 knots boat speed, but display alternative passage durations, whatever the tide.
