Publisher's Summary

Sailing is an international sport that offers many rewards. Imagine white sails billowing against a clear sky, the brisk feel of the breeze on your face, and the gentle motions of the boat as it cleanly slices through the water. While sailing is a great way to enjoy the outdoors, it also requires you to be an active participant more than almost any other type of boating.

When you learn how to sail, you will not only become intimately familiar with all aspects of your boat, but also how your boat relates to its environment in terms of everything from the wind to the weather. Sailing can be terrific exercise that is both invigorating and relaxing.

Not worth listening too, just too basic & obvious.

Wow, I read the other reviews, if you found this helpful you are a long way off planning your first sailing adventure, if ever, a book on the obvious, port is left, bow is front. If you go sailing you should check the weather, REALLY. It did not go into any details just common sense that if you did not know already, I would not want to go sailing with you. Waste of time and money.
