Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This meticulously researched book compiles the opinions of eminent mariners regarding the efficacy of automatic acetylene gas buoys. The author, an expert in marine navigation, presents detailed accounts of how these innovative buoys, particularly the large combined gas and whistling buoys, have revolutionized navigation in the early 20th century. The book includes testimonials from renowned shipmasters of the time, such as John Prichard, whose experiences with these buoys convinced him of their superiority in terms of visibility and ease of detection, even in adverse weather conditions. The author also includes technical specifications and details of real-world applications, such as the remarkable performance of a buoy off Point Judith, Long Island Sound, which operated reliably for an unprecedented ten months to a year, a significant improvement over the six-month lifespan of previous buoys. The book concludes by highlighting the enthusiastic endorsement of these buoys by professional mariners and their widespread adoption in North America, Europe, and South America. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
