Reeds Nautical Almanac has always been an indispensable annual compendium of navigational data.
It provides all the information required to navigate Atlantic coastal waters around the whole of the UK, Ireland, Channel Islands and the entire European coastline from the tip of Denmark right down to Gibraltar, Northern Morocco, the Azores.
The 2016 edition continues the Almanac’s tradition of year on year improvement and meticulous presentation of all the data required for safe navigation. Packed with essential information for coastal cruises as well as passage making, and with over 45,000 annual changes, it is regarded as the bible of almanacs for anyone going to sea.
Reeds Almanac is increasingly popular as an iPad app covering all of the navigational and port information from the print edition, along with tide data from the UKHO and handy live weather feeds from the Met Office.
The iPad version combines comprehensive coverage with carefully thought out functionality, usability and portability, taking full advantage of the iPad’s features.
The Digital Almanac can be purchased separately from the print edition and includes: live weather from the Met Office for up to 72 hours ahead, a much praised route planner and printing facility.
Like the print version it includes: 700 chartlets, weather, tide tables and streams, 7,500 waypoints, international code flags, safety, communications and much more.
The basic app is free and comes with sample ports and invaluable weather data. Users can either buy the entire edition for £44.99 or customise the app to their needs, selecting from a range of seven separate regional packs priced at £29.99 each.
Published by Adlard Coles Nautical, the printed version is £45 and is on offer at £34 for those who take out an annual subscription
