Items related to Sailing to Win
Yacht racing is not only one of the most highly competitive of sports, but also one of the most fascinating, compelling, and satisfying. This vintage book is a detailed guide to yacht racing, with information on every aspect of the sport from selecting a craft to reading the tide. Written in simple, clear language and full of invaluable information, this volume is highly recommend for the novice, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "Selecting a Racing Boat”, “Tuning Your Racing Boat”, “The Racing Rules”, “Training the Crew”, “The Day of the Race”, “Starting Tactics”, “Racing to Windward”, “Racing to Leeward”, “Handling the Spinnaker”, “Rounding Marks”, “Playing the Tide”, “Racing in Lights and Flunky Winds”, “Racing in a Heavy Wind”, “The Care of Sails”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on yachting and boating.
