From the author of the bestselling High Performance Sailing and
Higher Performance Sailing comes the first scientific analysis of
what makes fast sailors fast. Rejecting the idea that luck or
innate talent are the keys to success, Frank Bethwaite shows how
knowledge truly is power. Making use of video cameras aligned to
GPS read-outs to track the fastest racers, he meticulously analyses
what winners do and how they do it, to show the rest of us how to
get the best out of a racing craft. Frank Bethwaite's previous
books were groundbreaking bibles that applied scientific theories
to how sails and hulls interact with wind and water to influence
boat speed. But whilst they applied scientific theories to boat
construction, they didn't apply science to practical boat handling.
This book fills that gap, and then goes further. Budding racers of
all levels will welcome this unique book as a godsend. It will
inform, instruct and enable them to employ the techniques (and
timing) of the most successful racers, and make racing more
competitive for participants, and more exciting for those of us
watching.
