Omschrijving
This easy-to-follow, step-by-step guide takes you through the basic principles, preparing to sail, your first sail and safety at sea. It includes advice on choosing and buying a yacht, essential equipment, boat handling, tides, weather and navigation, all taken from the courses delivered by the UK’s biggest sailing school, the UKSA.
“a heavily illustrated guide covering all the basic aspects of going cruising from the vagaries of navigation to the technicalities of mooring up… nicely illustrated and well written.” (Sailing Today, September 2019)
