looking for french dictionary

[Kantara]

I have been searching frantically for a review that I saw of a dictionary of common yachting and cruising terms in French. Anyone any ideas?

Hi Im maybe a bit rusty with the English jargon but I have a feeling that by the time you have learnt the french terms you will be totally confused, now is the missen mast in front or behind etc. ????????
Best of luck!!!!

There is a well-known 'Yachtsman's 10 language dictionary. It is crap. You can find things like 'hanging knees' but not 'marina berth'.

I find the language pages in the front of Reeds quite helpful.

Thank you to all - the Glenans one looks good. There's still something niggling in the back of my mind about a new one having just come out in Dutch or Danish (or Spanish) and referring to the fact that it is a companion to a French one. However, I'll work on the Glenans one.
Thanks again
