Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Success in any yacht race depends to a large degree on the ability of the crew to perform any boat-handling manoeuvre faultlessly and speedily. This book explains the evolution of just about every situation that is likely to be encountered during a race at sea. Each one is appraised with an overview of the sequence that should take place and its objective, then the task of each crew member is explained for the preparation, operation and completion. The author has sailed in four Admiral's Cup series and has acted as the British team manager.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good write up of sailing tasks, March 25, 2009
However, I would have liked more about the Navigator's duty and activities and more general tips on boat prep and operation.
