Year: 1996 Language: english Author: Edited by Mike Darton Genre: Handbook Publisher: Grange Books Edition: Second ISBN: 1-85627-817-4 Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 152 Description: The sailing-boat is an almost perfect invention. It uses the natural forces of wind and sea, creating order and direction from relative chaos. How it does this is a matter of great concern to the sailor: by understanding the theory behind a boat’s performance he or she can handle any eventuality on the open water. This book sets out to give a full understanding of both the theory and practice behind the skill of sailing. Set Sail provides a thorough grounding in principles and techniques of dinghy sailing and cruiser sailing. Structured around the needs of the individual sailor, the book provides a graphic and informative course of instruction in all aspects of the sport, whether it be inshore dinghy racing or offshore cruising. Comprehensive, informative and above all practical Set Sail recognizes the need for a convenient manual that provides information, explanation and instruction fast. With concise illustrations of apparatus and methods, and an abundance of full-colour pictures the book guides the reader through boat-types, sail theory and navigation, to first cruise and first race. It also includes indispensable sections on rules of the road, emergencies afloat and boat maintenance and repairs.
