Historically, people have been tied to the boats in the many varied ways. While some people look on the boats as the means of rest and relax while others would rather treat boats like living creatures. The present title has already been proven useful to and highly appreciated by the representatives of both parties.

The material is conveniently arranged in seven chapters with the first one dealing with the boat deck work, where such topics as mooring, stowing and tripping lines, anchoring etc. are discussed. The second chapter addresses the sail handling of your boat; while the third one will introduce you to the essential safety aspects that shall be paid ultimate attention at all times when sailing on any boat or yacht.

There is one separate chapter devoted to the life on board and this information will be particularly interesting to those making their first voyage. Since the ventilation is considered very important, it has been covered in the next chapter, followed by the one about the galley. The closing chapter of the volume tells readers about the dinghy boats, a very interesting and traditionally popular design. This is a real must have book for all boating enthusiasts regardless of their skills and preparation level.
