Description
Tidal Havens of the Wash and Humber is a specialized pilot book published by Imray and written by Henry Irving. The book covers some of the most challenging and distinctive waters on the east coast of England, including The Wash and the Humber Estuary.
The area is characterized by large tidal differences, shifting sandbanks and shallow waters, which places high demands on local knowledge and precise navigation. The book provides detailed descriptions of tidal harbors, anchorages and approaches, as well as practical advice on timing, route selection and safe navigation.
The guide is based on in-depth knowledge of the area and is written for sailors who sail or plan to sail through these waters. The Tidal Havens of the Wash and Humber serves as an important supplement to charts and electronic navigation systems, and is particularly useful for boats with shallow draft or special tidal requirements.
