About this title

Synopsis

The boat.

The Topper's rapid growth in popularity is due to its double life as a high performance racing dinghy and as a fun boat for all the family. It is cheap, easily transported and a delight for adults and children to sail.

The book.

Topper Sailing is packed with information on all aspects of sailing and racing the Topper, from a simple explanation of sailing theory, how to rig, launch and sail your boat, to basic racing tactics and an analysis of boat speed techniques. Topper Sailing is illustrated with dozens of action photographs, all take especially for the book.
