RYA Int'l Collision Regulations – Second edition bundle promotion

by RYA on 10 Sep 2015 To celebrate the launch of the second edition of the popular RYA International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, which is now also available in eBook format, for the first time the RYA is offering a special ‘bundle’ promotion.

When you purchase a copy of the both the print and eBook versions of this title, via the RYA webshop, you will enjoy a special bundle discount of 25%, with an additional 15% discount for RYA member’s. Simply add both items to the basket and the bundle discount will automatically be applied.

“Since launching our eBooks in 2011 we have seen technology rapidly evolve enabling us to include many more interactive tools and features to our eBook offerings. As a result we have received more and more requests for discounts on eBooks from customers who have already purchased a print version of the title”, commented Steen Ingerslev, RYA Publications Manager.

“It’s pretty clear that the more digital interactivity we create, the greater the demand will be for a bundle option. We have therefore chosen to trial a bundle offer with the new Collision Regulations book largely because of the addition of the impressive 360° tool, which shows how vessels present in a wide variety of contexts.

“Initial response to the offer has been very positive and if it continues to be successful we will investigate how to extend this across our range of existing titles”, Steen added.

Written by Tim Bartlett, one of the country’s leading experts on navigation, the book is essential reading for anyone who takes charge of a vessel either for commercial or recreational use and is particularly useful for students taking courses within the RYA Yachtmaster Scheme.

The new edition has been restructured to provide a clear and authoritative explanation of the collision regulations, in a way that can be logically navigated whether you are using the book as a learning tool, reference or teaching aid. The title is also, for the first time, available as an eBook which includes a revolutionary interactive 360° lights and shapes tool allowing readers to gain a more realistic view of how vessels will actually present in a wide variety of contexts. Ideal for learning and teaching it shows all the configurations of lights and shapes, at four different times of day and night. The illustrations have also been enhanced to help any seafarer understand their responsibilities.
