Free Pilotage Info

In 1976 an American member of the Royal Cruising Club, Dr Fred Ellis, indicated that he wished to make a gift to the Club in memory of his father, the late Robert E. Ellis, of his friends Peter Pye and John Ives and as a mark of esteem for Roger Pinkney.
An independent charity known as the RCC Pilotage Foundation was formed and Dr Ellis added his house to his already generous gift of money to form the Foundation’s permanent endowment. The Foundation’s charitable objective is “to advance the education of the public in the science and practice of navigation” which is at present achieved through the writing and updating of pilot books covering many different parts of the world.
The Foundation is extremely grateful and privileged to have been given the copyrights to books written by a number of distinguished authors and yachtsmen including the late Adlard Coles, Robin Brandon and Malcolm Robson

Ok so GPS really is a blessing – I admit it – see GPS Types for a good explanation of the different types of system and also GPS Charts for an explanation of raster and vector chart types and their benefits
