How to Trim Sails provides practical advice that will instruct both the beginner and experienced sailor. As fuel is to powerboats so sails are to dinghies - you won't get far without one. Knowing the effects for various controls on the shape and performance of the sails can make a huge difference, and Peter Schweer lends years of experience to the task.

Recenzii

"Okay, Here are all the answers in this one little pocket book. Main, head, mizzen, oops, no mizzen, as this is more for performance sailors than cruisers, but it will help you get the most goodies out of the wind. Also good info on mast rake and camber." -- Latitudes & Attitudes "Latitudes & Attitudes, November 2006"
