This Is Racing: Tactics and Strategy in Action (This Is) - Softcover
This is an updated guide teaching all the skills to ensure accomplished and enjoyable yacht racing. It contains comments on the latest racing rules and original race-winning tactics and discusses the psychology and strategy of competition, course and weather tactics and the geometry of the race course. It takes you step-by-step through pre-race preparation and then through each decision point from start to finish of the course. It explains the many facets that make a winning boat be it a 12-foot dingy or an ocean racer. The book is written from experience gained in top-class competition and assumes that the reader will be sailing a boat that is crewed and tuned to be fully competitive.
