A detailed, technical, and readable study of the tactics of winning for the experieced sailor—by one of the world's leading smal boat racers.

Here is complete coverage of the racing sailor's common problems. Stuart H. Walker describes situations in which a racing problem was faced and solved. Each chapter is a narrative based on a particular incident, or a group of related incidents, analyzing the causes of the situation and the techniques required to meet it successfully. The Tactics of Small Boat Racing is for the racing sailor who wants to win—who wants to learn the art of maneuvering his boat in relation to the other boats so as to complete the course in the lead.

Stuart H. Walker's understanding of the experiences he recounts and analyzes derives from a career that includes races won and lost in the open sea, harbors, rivers, and lakes, in strong winds and light, and in various conditions of current and sea in the United States, Canada, Bermuda, and England.
