Description
Give this book a year and it will make you a better sailor – and that’s if you read only one tip a day. No fewer than 365 experienced sailors share the wisdom of their experience, revealing invaluable suggestions you won’t get taught on many sailing courses. Their tips cover the entire breadth of topics relating to practical seamanship, with smart advice, time-saving cheats and ingenious solutions to common problems involving boat handling (from rigging and sails to anchoring and mooring), navigation, and living aboard (including cooking and water supply), along with thrifty hints for simple maintenance and repairs (plus winterising), and customising the boat. Ideal for swotting up on a single topic or dipping into when needed, this book is particularly useful to new sailors and Day Skipper students.
