Autore: finnis b.Editore: waterlineISBN: 9781853104404

This is a book for the serious blue-water sailor, a book that has been written with the solid experience of a six year circumnavigation and countless long distance offshore passages. If you are looking for sound advice on the creation of a seaworthy and seakindly boat and if you have the sensible desire to anticipate the likely problems that you may encounter on passage, then you will find this book to be a masterpiece of common sense and practical information. The author found the most important factors of safe and carefree sailing. He tells how to repair and make your own sails, how to repair broken spars, the best methods of drying-out to attend the hull, what to do in heavy weather and when your boat is damaged. There is much hard-won sailing sense here, some of which may come as a surprise to those who adhere to the more conventional cruising philosophy as applied in nearer waters.

Edition: 1993
