Captain Trimmer's tome "How to Avoid Huge Ships" is filled from cover-to-cover with the kind of wisdom that only years of salt spray can crust onto a man. However, most helpful was his summary and its very succinctness and intuitive nature, may in fact, hurt his book sales. "Stay on land" (page 111, paragraph 3) is the kind of advice that small boat captains of all ranges of experience can both grasp at once and ponder at length to plumb the depths of its insightful intelligence.I recommend this book highly. The thought "stay on land" needs to be at the forefront of every man's navigating awareness and this book should be on each pleasure boat captain's bookshelf. Avoiding huge ships is everyone's responsibility but Captain Trimmer's key piece of advice will also solve all manner of water-related ills including, incredibly enough, shark attacks.
