Handling Ships in first-year Ice

Handling Ships in First-Year Ice First-year ice remains a major obstacle for commercial traffic, limiting vessels speed and maneuverability. Because ice can damage ships propellers, main engines, rudders and hull plating, handling ships in such conditions demands specialist knowledge and skills. The author uses his wide experience of operating ice class vessels to offer practical guidance on ship handling in first-year ice. This new edition takes account of the Polar Code, heavier traffic in ice-affected waters, better communications and new ice-detection methods, while improved illustrations provide clearer guidance on maneuvers in ice.
