The publisher writes about the book:
Learning to sail a keelboat should be interesting, inspiring and rewarding. The book is for those who are looking for an educational and practical guide to the world of sailing. It provides a basic description of the wind and water effects, the boat and its sails, and then goes into some key concepts and maneuvers in sailing.
After a theoretical introduction, it describes the practicalities of sailing, from rigging and preparing your boat to performing maneuvers, trimming sails and sailing downwind. Depending on the type of sailing you are interested in, you can then read more about either racing or boating, because there is undeniably a charm in both ocean racing and lying quietly in a natural harbor along the coast. Produced by the Swedish Sailing Federation. Authors: Fredrik Aurell, Hans Larsson, Magnus Rönnberg.
