Yes, of course. Own it, read it, reread it. The edition we have has lots of F32 photos. In the docking section, I think. Pretty cool!

Paul, I don't recall anything sticking out as being strictly Canadian. I can't think of anything off the top of my head that's any different than the American stuff, but I'm just drawing a blank right now. We drive on the same side of the road as you guys :wink:

Well I must have had my head on backwards. I should be "upgrading" but I seem to be going in the other direction. Just added to my collection; Chapman's 1960 printing, just couldn't resist. Also picked up 1958 American Practical Navigator published by the U.S. Navy Hydrographic Office, Dutton's Navigation and Piloting from 1957 by the U.S. Naval Institute, Annapolis, Maryland, and Dead Reckoning Altitude and Azimuth Table printed by the U.S. Navy Dept. in 1943. Included in this printing was the price....90 cents! I just couldn't pass these up. They will keep me busy for a while, one of them is three inches thick.

I always found open book to be the hardest. They know you could look things up so they make it much harder.

This book is new to me. Once again this forum is a great place for me to learn.

Prowlerfish, thanks for creating this post and then making it easy for us to find on Amazon. Just ordered a copy.
