The RYA Weather Handbook is a key reference work for sailors seeking a better understanding of weather and meteorology at sea. Developed by the Royal Yachting Association (RYA), the book draws on years of teaching and practical experience in sailing and seamanship. <\/p>\n

The publication explains how weather phenomena occur and develop, and how winds, pressures, fronts and clouds affect conditions at sea. It provides sailors with a solid foundation for interpreting weather forecasts, synoptic charts and local observations so that decisions about route choice, departure time and safety can be made on a better informed basis. <\/p>\n

The RYA Weather Handbook emphasizes practical application and is written with sailors in mind. It is suitable both as a textbook for courses and training, and as a reference book on board for those who want to understand the connection between weather forecasts and actual conditions at sea. <\/p>\n

The book is often used in combination with navigation literature and sailing manuals, and is part of the basic library for many cruisers and long-distance sailors who want increased safety and better planning at sea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
