This book takes a fresh look at the fundamental physics of sailing, emphasising factors that are unique to high-speed boats, and building logically from the fluid force mechanisms through the hydro and aero components to the numerous boat configurations that now exist.
Suitable performance calculations are clearly explained for all the dominant types: Windsurfers, kite surfers, kite foilers, trimaran catamaran, planing monohulls, moths, etc. along with fascinating observations and speculation of the potential for further increase in speed.
In addition, the book includes exclusive calculations of the performance in waves for some popular boat types. A selection of the calculations can be downloaded with an access code that comes free with the book.
This book should be on any technically minded sailing person's book shelf!
