5.0 out of 5 stars Must have sailing reference, August 9, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Sailing Theory and Practice (Hardcover)
One of the most important books on saliling, sailboat racing, and boat construction published in the 20th century. Loaded with detailed (yet easy to follow) charts, graphs and illustrated diagrams. This is a book that really should be part of any comprehensive personal reference library of any serious sailing enthusiast.

5.0 out of 5 stars fantastic yourney through sailing theory and practice, January 26, 2001
By 
This review is from: Sailing Theory and Practice (Hardcover)
I red first Polish edition of this book a long time ago. I still have it and from time to time read some parts again and again. It was the first such a book in Poland with a lot of theoretical information about sailing written not only for aero and hydrodynamic engineer. I'm waiting for a new Polish 2000 edition, now.
