Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Trade Paperback. Trade paperback. Couple of creases to cover. So you've been sailing for while and you fancy your chances in a race. But how do you start? What do you need to know to get through those first few races without getting confused, shouted at, discouraged or disqualified? And having got the measure of the opposition, how can you beat them? Using their experience in a wide range of classes, the authors provide a blueprint for surviving the early stages of your racing career without being put off by 'the system' or the competition. They go on to examine ways of goring faster, taking a hard look at helming and crewing skills, teamwork and boat preparation. But it takes more than speed to cut through to the front of the fleet, and the rest of the book concentrates on tactics and stategy: jockeying for position at the start, outwitting your opponenets at the finish and learning how to take advantage of windshifts and currents. By the time you get this far, you should be winning. Illustrated. 64 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
