This is a beginners' sailing guide. It aims to cater equally for the young enthusiast with a first dinghy and for yacht owners. The author gives basic but comprehensive information about sailing boats of all sizes and classes. Starting with sails and rigging, he covers how to get underway, sailing positions, boat handling, balancing, spinnakers, ropes and cordage. As the novice gets a grip of the fundamentals, the author introduces other aspects of sailing - the rules of the road and the problems of heavy weather and emergencies.
