This looks like an awesome resource for those of you out there that are looking for some reading material on the subject of precision fire from boats. I have not read this book but I definitely perked up after seeing the endorsements on the thing. Mr. Plaster was one of them, and his books have been mentioned before on this blog. I will take his word that this book is a good resource. –Matt

For the professional sniper, engaging a target on the high seas is one of the most challenging assignments of all. Erratic movement introduced by waves, vessel speeds, and engine vibrations; short, sudden windows of opportunity; and a host of unique environmental factors make the shot that much more demanding for even experienced marksmen.
Now, master sniper Fredrik Jonsson has written what is destined to become the classic manual on precision fire from seaborne platforms.
