The publication is a perfect dictionary of the boating language – it has been very popular and greatly appreciated by the readers in the different countries. The author of the book included so many images supplemented with the informative explanations in order to provide a single reference that would be useful for the people who are planning to purchase and use the boating equipment.
The author has attempted to bring the language of the ocean into the life of every single person, up to the kid playing with the toy boats. In fact you are not obliged and expected to know literally all boat terminology but should rather have a good understanding of the subject. The publication was first released in Australia and then gained popularity in the whole world.
The original intention of the author was to introduce the new terminology that emerged as a result of the technological advances and developments in the area of boat building and boating. The terms include those used within the British and American literature, as well, making the publication international in nature. There are also many diagrams included by the author and placed close to the descriptions to make understanding and remembering of the associated terms easier.
