Radar and ARPA Manual, 2nd ed.

Radar and ARPA (Automatic Radar Plotting Aids) are standard systems on all commercial vessels and are widely used in the leisure maritime sector. This is an advanced text on their usage.
562 pages, 7.5 x 10 x 1.5 inches.

$96.95   ...item# 1883



This new edition covers the complete radar/ARPA installation and serves as the most comprehensive and up-to-date advanced reference on equipment and techniques for radar observers using older and newer systems alike. Suitable for use both as a professional user's reference and as a training text in radar schools, it covers all aspects of radar, ARPA and integrated bridge system technology, its use and its role in shipboard operations. Reference is made throughout to IMO (International Maritime Organization) Performance Standards, the role of radar in navigation and in collision avoidance, and to international professional and amateur marine operations qualifications.

Needless to say, we recommend our own Radar for Mariners as an introduction to radar and to cover the needs of most users, but for those looking for the next step in subject matter and level of coverage, this is the definitive reference. Highly recommended for radar instructors.
