Hello this book is required to go on the Dutch canals and I'm sure a download would do the job legally and on the spot for lock times for example.
I was wondering if anyone here had tried? Thanks in advance for any tips cheers Jerry.
 
Thanks for the advice,you never know these days.
Editing to add: Anyone interested should see the link Sailorman put on my thread in the wanted section.

see also our clear animation about the sailing rules.

Indispensable book

If you get the bright idea of using the water map to plan a trip, take the following to heart. On the map you will find water bridge water depths and heights, but the described measurements can be quite different from the reality. They are indeed made ​​from a certain water, called the canal level
called. After a good deal of rainwater is significantly higher than the water level in the water map indicated water level. It goes without saying that the bridge height in that case slightly lower.
Fortunately, there is the radio . The bridge operator in function is always willing to provide information about the actual clearance. Know also that the best man or woman goes sour look when the bridge opened for you, while it appears that you are fine underneath could sail.
Whatever you part 2 of the almanac can consult, for operating times of locks. Can be handy. Suppose you come Friday afternoon relax a lock entry where two red lights ominously among themselves on. Undoubtedly you Monday morning as the first turn, but probably bring you
your weekends prefer otherwise.

Also information about marinas where you can take a temporary berth, about
sanitation and the presence or absence of power, refer to the almanac to coast and variety. Even for rates you can book the right. A mooring fee is charged per linear meter.
Prices are by and large completed. Just remember very well that the average harbormaster is one mathematician. Fib about the length of the boat is usually not so smart.

And the site you link to has what authority? I'll stick to carrying Vol1, & Vol2 because that is useful.
 
Let me be more clear

The almanac is just a publication, which has a transscript in book 1.

You are required to have the latest publication of the boating regulations on board.

Hence the statement , you must have the Almanac on board is wrong!

http://www.vaarbewijzen.nl/images/Binnenvaartpolitiereglement.pdf
or
http://www.vaarmij.nl/bestanden/file/6.2.3.3binnenvaartpolitiereglement.pdf

Validity
Literal text from the new BPR:
Article 1.11 Rules on board
On board a ship, an updated copy of the valid Inland Navigation Police
are present. One copy via electronic means, at any time can be consulted
is also permitted.
This file meets the requirements of the new BPR.

This is what is required to have on board.
Just search for BPR and print it.

Many thanks for you help gents,the light has dawned and it's as clear as mud. I will just print out this thread that should do the business. Blue board means green to green or the Orangeman will see red :(
 
There is also an app available in the appstore.
It is called BPR PRO. It fulfills all the requirements.
Utter nonsens anyway. I'm Dutch and I've never used it...
