There are many excellent books on sailing but very few devoted
solely to dinghies. This is a book suited to those whose interest
is mainly in just plain sailing, rather than those who wish to
race. It contains a number of fairly original suggestions from the
author who has found them to be successful on his own general
purpose dinghy. A useful book for anyone interested in 'messing
about' with as well as in their boats. Contents Include Sailing
