His book was written in the first place to help students and instructors on the practical Course for the RYA/DoT (Offshore) Certificate, to provide them with an introduction to the course by broadening the common ground between student and instructor and by reducing the time that has to be spent in relating the art of the seaman and the navigator to that of the skipper.
