This 108 page soft-cover book discusses the many ways that computers should become part of yachting. As the author says in his introduction:
Having a computer on board is now (2007) a commonplace affair, though different people use it in different ways. Even 5 years ago it was seen as a bit unusual to have one on board, and it was still the preserve of higher-end race boats, long discrance cruisers needing e-mail communications, and techno-geeks enjoying using leading-edge technology.
This book is well illustrated with a LOT of color photos, graphs and charts. It includes chapters on Hardware Decisions, Comms Configuration, Navigation, Entertainment, along with an index and a glossary of technological terms.
