This book investigates the science behind each component of manoeuvring a ship in confined waters, especially in port limits and the art to master it.

To monitor the vessel’s progress, the pilot had set up his portable pilotage unit (PPU). He had connected the rate-of-turn generator to the vessel’s pilot plug and had set a variable range marker on the radar with a radius of 0.5 nm.
