About the Author:
Frank Bethwaite has been at the leading edge of national and world
class sailing for over sixty years. Apart from his own outstanding
racing successes, he has coached every level of would-be champion from
basic to Olympic standard. Within his own family, three are Olympic
champions and three are world champions in four classes. From a
background of aeronautical engineering and meteorology, Frank spent
thirty years in military and civilian aviation and finally in
scientific flying. When he retired he decided to find out how small
sailboats worked - so that he could make them sail faster.
