Synopsis

This vintage book is a complete guide to dinghy sailing, designed to teach the beginner everything from basic handling to dinghy racing. With information on topics ranging from buying a boat to managing weight distribution, this volume constitutes a must-have for the novice enthusiast, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "Dinghy Classes", "Buying a Boat", "Crewing", "Getting Afloat and Ashore", "Mainly on Sail", "Trimming", "Weight Distribution", "Balance and Kicking", "Straps", "Heavy and Light Weight", "Weather Tasks", "Helming", "Helmsman's Responsibilities", "Sail Trimming and Steering", "Positions and Predicaments", etc. Many old books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing "Racing Dinghy Handling" now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on sailing.
