Witherby’s have announced the new edition of their ECDIS Passage Planning series.
Now in its third edition, this book has been fully revised and updated to provide practical guidance on the appraisal and planning stages of the passage on ECDIS, as well as on correct use of ECDIS by the OOW in keeping the navigational watch.
The development and use of ECDIS theoretically makes navigation safer and more efficient. However, despite its capabilities, ECDIS is still only a navigational aid and a high level of equipment knowledge and skill is still required to compose a safe passage plan. Now in its third edition, ECDIS Passage Planning is a comprehensive and detailed guide to the four recognised stages of an ECDIS voyage: appraisal, planning, execution and monitoring.
