I bought How to Avoid Huge Ships as a companion to Captain Trimmer's other excellent titles: How to Avoid a Train, and How to Avoid the Empire State Building. These books are fast paced, well written and the hard won knowledge found in them is as inspirational as it is informational. After reading them I haven't been hit by anything bigger than a diesel bus. Thanks captain!

You can't avoid huge ships! They'll come for you no matter where you are. Didn't the author ever see Speed 2?

But what if I don't want to avoid huge ships?  I mean I don't want to collide with them but I like seeing them.  And what do they consider a huge ship?  Would the Alpena at 546 feet fit in that category or are they only referring to ships like the Arthur Anderson at 767 feet?  Or maybe they only care about the 1000 footers?
