Aprašymas

This vintage book is a complete guide to sailing, with information on choosing your vessel, reading tides, racing, design and construction, navigation, and all other related aspects. Profusely illustrated and written in simple language, this book will be of considerable utility to both novice and seasoned sailor alike, and would make for a fantastic addition to allied collections. Contents include: "Why They Enjoy It", "What Kind of Sailing?", Picking The Right Boat", "Going Afloat", "Knots and Other Notions", "Managing More Sails", "Care of Sails", "Class Distinctions", "Can I Build Her?", "Long Life to the Boat", "Going Racing?", "Winning Moves", "You are Officer of the Day", "Tides and Tidal Streams", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on sailing.
