Description For Use Afloat This is the essential pocket-sized guide to first aid you need to have on board if you are boating. Aimed specifically at boaters, it covers every medical problem you may encounter on board, from common issues such as seasickness and sunburn to more serious problems such as broken bones and emergencies including heart attacks and strokes. Every problem is graded for its seriousness, indicating whether it is something you can treat yourself that needn’t mean the end of the trip, or whether you should head back to shore or summon help immediately. Clear, full-colour step by step diagrams illustrate succinct instructions for quick reference. The book also includes a guide on what to include in your on-board first aid kit.
