Heavy Weather Sailing has long reigned as the ultimate
international authority on surviving storms at sea aboard sailing
and motor vessels. The book brings a wealth of expert advice from
many of the great sailors of the present, followed by fresh
accounts of yachts, both sail and power, overtaken by extreme
weather. Techniques for coping with heavy seas are explored,
seasick remedies proposed, there are lessons to be learnt for those
in command, and a detailed analysis of meteorological conditions
leading up to a storm. This is the book for crews of any size
contemplating voyages out of sight of land anywhere in the world,
whether racing or cruising. It gives a clear message of the sort of
preparations required, and the tactics which should be considered
when it comes on to blow. 'This book is an institution' Practical
