From the author's preface to this second edition..
"When this book was first published in 1933 the Reviewer in The Field suggested that Chichester and Langston Harbours should be added in any future edition. His views were shared by many other yachtsmen, and so in this second edition the scope of the book has been extented to include these Harbours. .
The opportunity has been taken of revising the whole of the original chapters. Changes are most notable in the Fareham and Portchester Creeks chapters."
