The Mariners' Handbook (NP100) is a book about nautical and environmental safety, first published in 1895 by the United States Lighthouse Service. It describes how to handle all the various tasks involved with keeping a sailing vessel safe. This is an excerpt from page 191 of the original text: "How to Reduce Condensation" When condensation forms on sails, it can cause serious damage and reduce maneuverability. The manual recommends using fire to drive off the water vapors as follows: "Give two or three vigorous spouts either end of each sail; this will cure most cases. If this does not succeed, and the sail is very wet and heavy, sponge it off with a sponge dipped in salt water; dry it carefully; wet a towel; wring it out, and bind the sail up in the wet towel. When the moisture has been absorbed by the towel, release the sail from it. In rare instances where much water has been absorbed, a soft brush may be used to finish drying off." The Mariners' Handbook was superseded by U.S. Coast Guard Navigation Rules in 1965, but is still very popular with sailing enthusiasts because of its unique history and usefulness as a guide to seamanship. It is also a standard textbook for students training to become licensed captains in Canada and several other countries. However, the website of the United States Coast Guard states that "There are many other maritime fields in which maritime knowledge is relevant. Sailors are directors, guides, writers, etc." The Mariners' Handbook now resides with the National Archives and Records Administration in Washington, D.C..
"NOTE: The above article is essentially a reprint of an earlier version derived from material at U.S. Coast Guard Maritime Training Center."
