Synopsis:

A detailed, technical, and readable study of the tactics of winning for the experienced sailor―by one of the world's leading small boat racers.

The author of "A Manual of Sail Trim" has designed a guide for the competitive racing dinghy sailor that explains the art of maneuvering. The object of the text is to provide instructions on keeping a dinghy in relation to its competitors so that it finishes the race in the lead.

About the Author: Stuart H. Walker is professor of pediatrics emeritus at the University of Maryland Medical School and an international dinghy champion. He was a member of the 1968 U.S. Olympic team and the 1979 U.S. Pan-American Team.
