When you learn how to skipper a yacht the practical courses cover a
whole range of activities, from passage planning to pilotage and
berthing. The way you learn about these elements on a course is
usually like this: - the briefing, where the instructor prepares
you for the exercise. He should explain what we're trying to
achieve, how it's going to work, and what the skipper and crew need
to do - the practical activity - you all have a go - the debriefing
afterwards, where you discuss what happened and how it went, and
take notes of what to remember. At the end of the course, you will
have had a go at all the important stuff you have to do in the
course of sailing the yacht, but you'll probably struggle to
remember all the essential bits: the all-important briefing, and
the sequence of things you have to remember. This book is the
answer. Containing all the author's own briefing notes and concise
explanations, it covers every activity a skipper will need to carry
out. Using bullet points, handy checklists and simple diagrams,
this book is a unique resource for all skippers - reassurance for
new skippers that they haven't forgotten something vital, and a
reminder for the more experienced. These are the notes you wish
you'd written when you attended your sailing course, and had to
hand when revising for your exam or refreshing your knowledge
later.
