    The completely revised, expanded and updated 4th edition of the world's most comprehensive electrical and electronics handbook for boaters. With a Foreword by Don McIntyre, Founder and Organiser of the Ocean Globe and Golden Globe Races.

    This useful and thoroughly practical guide explains in detail how to select, install, maintain, and troubleshoot all of the electrical and electronic systems on a boat, and is fully illustrated with hundreds of informative charts, wiring diagrams, and graphs.

    Subject-specific chapters have been updated with the latest information on topics such as batteries and charging systems, including lithium-ion batteries, wiring, alternative energy charging, corrosion protection, GPS, radar, satellite communications, autopilots, VHF and SSB radios, instrumentation, and much more.

    In addition to being restructured and significantly expanded, the 4th edition of Marine Electrical & Electronics Bible incorporates information on new technology equipment and devices such as AIS; the latest on GMDSS, electronic charting, NAVTEX, lightning protection, and other systems; and brand-new chapters on electrical propulsion, diesel engines, and mobile phone boating apps.
