Asymmetric dinghies burst into the sailing scene in the 1990s and
have transformed the sport. They led to the introduction of new
types of courses and a new sailing style. While the basic
principles may be the same as for conventional dinghies, the
increased focus on apparent wind sailing and responding to changes
in wind pressure and direction downwind are exciting new elements
that asymmetric dinghies bring. This book allows you to learn the
secrets of getting the most from your asymmetric dinghy - whether
you sail an entry level dinghy or a high-performance skiff,
single-handed or with a crew. Following its advice will enable you
to enjoy being at one with your boat and the wind. It is written by
asymmetric champion sailor and journalist Andy Rice who has also
gleaned tips, advice and some great shortcuts from expert sailors
in a wide range of classes. This will give you the inside knowledge
to improve your techniques and get ahead of the fleet. There's
step-by-step guidance, accompanied by great photo sequences. Every
stage of asymmetric sailing is covered, including rigging and
tuning, hoists, gybes and drops, tactics, survival sailing and
advanced skills for solo and crewed boats.
