About This Item
New York: MacMillan, 1974. Fifteenth Printing . Printed Boards. Very Good/Good. 8 1/2" Tall. That is why," the author concludes, "we go to sea - to get the utmost out of our boat, to feel our mastery of a live, responsive thing of character and beauty, to make ourselves a part of the boat and to make the boat a part of us." How this may come about is described for the novice and intermediate sailor by a fair, but strong-minded coach who guides the reader from Selecting a Boat to using and maintaining it and its sails to Yachting Etiquette. 43 chapters, 459 pages with figures, diagrams, and half-tones; plus Preface, Contents and List of Illustrations. DJ is chipped and torn; boards are clean and sound; text is strong, but is dog-eared in places and ballpoint-underlined on page 104. ..
