| Book Subtitle | In Dinghies or Yachts - a No-nonsense Guide for Beginners of All Ages |
| Book Description | For anyone learning to sail in either dinghies or yachts, this book is easy to read with lively colour illustrations. Now in a larger format, this is a no-nonsense guide for beginners of all ages and is valuable as a back-up to sailing courses or for anyone learning to sail with a friend. It covers how to start sailing, the different kinds of boats you will sail in, various parts of a boat, rigging and launching a dinghy, getting going in a yacht, how a boat sails, handling ropes and tying knots, the effect of the tide, the weather, living aboard a yacht and what is on a chart. 'A useful first introduction' The Little Ship 'An ideal book for the absolute beginner...a no-nonsense primer' Kelvin Hughes |
| Editorial Review | Whether you want to go out on the water in a dinghy or a yacht, this easy to read book will help you get started and is the perfect introduction whatever age you are... This no-nonsense guide covers everything from how to start sailing to the effect of the weather.' Yachting Life (January 2007) 'Simplicity itself... all presented with clear, easily understood text, and excellent colour pics and diagrams. Dads and Mums, if you want you lad or lass to go sailing, this little publication would help your cause greatly.'

The Lifeboat (Summer 2007) 'This book is a very good no-nonsense guide for beginners of all ages, the ideal book to read before you step onto a sailig boat, and an ideal reference guide to help you make sense of it all after your early experiences under sail.' Boat Mart (Feb 2008) 'A no-nonsense guide for beginners of all ages...well illustrated with coloured line drawings and photographs on every page.' Yachting World (October 2009) |
