The US Coast Guard - Boat Crew Seamanship Manual was posted Friday to
alt.binaries.e-book.technical
by someone else.

Just in case you'd like to see it.....

It's in pdf format and is quite large, meaning it must have lots of
pictures. I haven't downloaded it, yet, but is scheduled for tonight.

On the subject list, it starts with:

US Coast Guard - Boat Crew Seamanship Manual.pdf

I downloadad the manual - it is a great reference book (1242 pages). I am
loading it on my "boat laptop" (where I also keep the latest charts and
other goodies).

Thank you , Larrt, for this tip

It probably would be "politically correct" to have one of its important
pages about rules-of-the-road onscreen as the Coasties board the boat to
inspect your Y-valve and fire extinguishers.....(c;

Show them you care, ya know....(c;

FYI, there are many Coast Guard manuals posted online at
http://www.uscg.mil/ccs/cit/cim/directives/cim.html

This may be easier to access. The Boat Crew Seamanship manual at that
site is from 2003 and has 888 pages. Is it the same?

Steve,

When I "click" on any of the links on the a.m. URL, I get the following
response "The system cannot find the file specified.".

So, I will stick with the complete manual that Larry pointed me to - or am I
missing something?

Do they actually check your Y-valve is not positioned for discharge to
the sea

Go to the Coast Guard site (http://www.uscg.mil) and type in "boat crew
seamanship" in the search box on the right hand side. It will take you
to a list of manuals, and you can download the chapters one by one.

Hi Lary:

Thanks for the heads up...

down loaded the 30 meg+ document at my local print shop. they printed
on some nice thick slick paper on both sides. I seperated into a few
sections (volumes) and had it spiral wire bound.

total cost $40.

Looks and feels real cool.

Thanks,
book binder Bob
