Sailing is fun for everyone. No matter where you are or how old you
are, anyone can get involved. There are only two things you need to
get afloat - a kitbag full of enthusiasm, and this book. In this
ultimate beginner's guide, yachtsman and writer Simon Jollands
takes the helm to show newcomers of any age that sailing is easier
than people sometimes think. He quickly covers how to get afloat
before exploring what you can do when you are on board: - Learn how
to steer the boat - Understand how sails work, and how to hoist
them - Find out how to use an anchor - and how to get free again! -
Learn how to tie useful knots - Know what to do if there's a man
overboard - Discover the curious intricacies of how toilets work on
a boat... All the simple stuff is covered too, from what clothes to
wear to getting on board safely. With a glossary of boating terms,
and clear colour diagrams and photos throughout, this book makes
everything easy to understand, so even somebody who has never
stepped foot on a boat before can quickly learn the ropes.
