Emergencies on Board

Know what to do when things go wrong

This laminated fold-out guide shows you how to recover a crew overboard quickly; how to jury-rig an emergency sail plan or steering arrangement; how to get your boat off a shoal and how to keep it afloat; plus how to respond to adversity.

On the water, when questions arise, there's no time to search through an exhaustive manual. The Captain's Quick Guides provide all the answers—fast.

Drawn from the world's largest boating library, each laminated Quick Guide presents 14 color panels of authoritative, concise information on a critical topic, designed for onboard quick reference. Quick Guides are:

Hinged and laminated for durability and resistance to water damage
Carefully organized with color illustrations for instant, easy answers
Ideal for emergency situations with an at-your-fingertips format
Just right for tight quarters, where space is an issue
