Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

The essential standard sailing directions for the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, corresponding with zone NP64 on the official Admiralty charts. These nautical works - pilot guides and charts - were published by the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office, which provides the necessary hydrographic and marine geospatial data to all kinds of maritime organisations across the world. The publications are not only used by the British Royal Navy, but can also be found on board the majority of international merchant ships. The data provided in the pilot guides and other publications are compliant with SOLAS (the Safety of Life at Sea treaty) guidelines and are updated constantly in weekly "Notices to mariners" and supplements to and new editions of the pilot guides whenever necessary.The present copy is the 10th edition (1955) of the pilot guide with sailing directions and other information on the weather, currents, radar ranges etc. relating to the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, including the supplement issued in 1957. It includes an (erroneous?) "advertisement to the eight edition" by the Hydrographer of the Navy, Rear-Admiral Kenneth St Barbe Collins (1904-1982). The advertisement states that with the publication of "the ninth edition" (presumably this volume) the previous edition and its supplements are cancelled, since the most up-to-date information has been compiled in the new edition and the weekly "Notices to mariners" that appeared after the publication of the 11th edition. The 10th edition of 1955 and its 1957 supplement were made redundant with the publication of the 11th edition in 1967. Each subsequent edition of the pilot supersedes the last, which have appeared infrequently, depending on newly available information, from the mid-19th century until the present day.The front paste-down and recto of the first free endpaper contain a "caution" notice and room for the notation of "supplements and annual summaries of notices to mariners relating to this book", the first two pages are printed on red-pink paper. The binding shows minor signs of wear around the spine and corners of the boards, the gutter after page II is somewhat weakened, the head edge of the wrappers of the supplement are very slightly browned. Otherwise in very good condition. Original blue cloth with yellow lettering on the spine and the front board, the supplement is loosely inserted at the end of the volume: original printed paper wrappers, stapled. With a folding map (printed on both sides), 2 coloured plates with diagrams (printed on both sides), 28 plates showing coastlines and occasionally a map (many printed on both sides), and many some illustrations in text. Pages: [2], LI (= LIII: II plus [1], [1 blank]), [1 blank], 518, [1], [1 blank] pp; Supplement: 20 pp. With: [NAVIGATION - RED SEA - PILOT GUIDE]. Supplement no. 1-1957 relating to the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden pilot, tenth edition, 1955, corrected to 17th July, 1957, whenever reference is made to the pilot, this supplement must be consulted.London, published for the Hydrographic Department, 1957.…
