The core of the book is vintage Beebe: his designs, his research and his wonderful cruising stories remain intact. What's new are details of the advances of the past twenty years: electronic wizardry for navigation and communication, efficient new engines, roll-prevention devices that virtually eliminate seasickness; propeller nozzles and bow thrusters that improve maneuverability and ease handling for shorthanded crews; bulbous bow extensions that improve speed, fuel economy, and sea-keeping ability. An entirely new section features the work of other designers, and new chapters cover American inland waterways, watch-standing and machinery. Mrs. Linford Beebe has even updated her original chapter on provisioning the long-distance cruising galley.

Voyaging Under Power is the definitive guide for those who yearn to expand their cruising horizons, and cross oceans with speed and comfort.
