From the Author
A practical guide to a wonderful sport
"There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats". With those words in The Wind in the Willows, Kenneth Grahame summed up the lure of sailing. This book is a practical guide to a wonderful sport, and I hope it also reflects the joy of being afloat.
