Have you read the one two books to the right of the almanac - Ernie Gann's Fate Is The Hunter?Gann was a sailor, but more notably a commercial pilot and this book is a collection of tales about his flying days. A great read.
Thanks - I haven't. Next time I'm in there I'll check it out
I'm still using the 2005 almanac plus an up to date £1.50 tide table - strangely enough all the ports harbours and rivers are pretty much in the same place!!!
Actually I've been doing something similar - getting HW Dover / Portsmouth of the web and then using those times with my 2004 almanac.Maybe I should post asking people how old their almanacs are and trying to find the oldest out there
