Extract

The recent history and background of the Channel Navigation Information Service (CNIS) have been well documented in this journal by my illustrious forebears, Captain Richard Emden and Commander James Neill. Whilst this paper describes some of the changes in the service since those papers were published, it may be appropriate to review the key events in the introduction of what was once a unique initiative, and remind the reader of the operational doctrine and philosophy of the system.
