Synopsis: Fernhurst Books' compact, handy guides to first aid and emergencies at sea bundled together in e-book form for the first time. The perfect quick reference guides to keep on your phone or tablet, easily accessible when you are on board. They contain all the essential information for when you need it most when dealing with first aid issues or emergencies at sea. The First Aid Companion is an on-the-water reference guide for most of the first aid emergencies you could come across afloat, including drowning, unconsciousness, external bleeding, immersion, hypothermia and more. The Emergency Companion is there should you ever find yourself in an emergency: it could be your saviour. Covering everything from fires, leaks, engine trouble and emergency steering to man overboard, first aid, dismasting and distress signals, this guide has an important place on board every boat. This will be a valued companion for skipper and crew in an emergency.
