Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This one one of the best all purpose primers on sailing and sail handling. There is good advice for beginners as well as experienced sailors. Perhaps a perfect book to buy for intermediate Big Boat sailors seeking the next level. Discussion of theory is excellent and easy to follow, but the translation into practice is superb. Diagrams are very helpful.
As a long time Sailing School owner, Steve's advice comes off well grounded in practical advice that works for intermediate and advanced sailors. As a long time racer, his anecdotes intermingle the advice and give his tips a practical ring as well as making the book more readable.
Many sailing technique books are too basic for anyone other than a beginner, or are too esoteric and specific for anyone other than a very advanced racer. This book strikes a great balance. See also Melges and Conner for similar great primers.
Highly recommended addition to a sailing technique library.
