Critics Review
“A great book for those sailors who have just finished their practical Day Skipper course and who need more confidence to sail their own yacht.” - Sandy Duker, Cruising Association
Duncan Wells tackles a vast range of topics from marina berthing to anchoring. Wells’ approach is not always standard procedure, but it is rooted in safe seamanship, logic and a practical appreciation of sailing reality. His trickbag is a delight that will change the habits of many experienced yachtsmen and make life easier for many newcomers. * Sailing Today *
