Study Guide for Bytown Brigantine Trainee Logbook

These pages are intended to be printed out and put in a binder to collect study notes. This will not replace the Trainee Logbook which Bytown Brigantine trainees will still need to get signed off. The idea is that the crew member in training can use these pages to take notes in preparation for examination and sign off in the Trainee Logbook.

The appendicies should be particularly useful in jotting down definitions to all those nautical terms as you learn them. Please note that these Study Guide pages are under construction. If you have comments or suggestions, please let me know by sending an email to Webmaster@tallshipsadventure.org. Thanks, and I hope you find these pages useful.
