Sailing is many, many things. It s a hobby. It’s a sport. It’s an intellectual pursuit. It’s a passion. It's a social thing. It’s an individual thing. It’s complicated. It’s simple. It's relaxing. It’s exciting. It's a labor. It’s a labor of love. It’s poetic, popular, yet vaguely elitist. It’s ancient, eternal and silly in some ways. But front page, futuristic and hip as well.
This book is about getting started and getting out there. Simple, straightforward. No long diatribes about theory. Skipping complicated sailing jargon that can stymie most novices, this book goes straight to the very basic questions, such as How do I leave the dock? and Where are the brakes?
Technique and simple theory are illustrated in plain detail, including the basic physics behind sailing in all four directions.
