Summary

The Complete Day Skipperis a totally practical hands-on manual that covers the RYA Day Skipper syllabus in a way that reflects a skipper's growing experience at sea, beginning with yacht handling under power and moving on to boat husbandry and sailing skills and from there to the realistic use of modern electronic navigation systems.Eminently readable and very down to earth, this fully revised new edition has become required reading for all skippers in their early years as well as more experienced sailors who choose not to venture far afield. One of Britain's best-known instructors and writers on seamanship, Tom Cunliffe provides just the right blend of advice, instruction, inspiration and encouragement. 'There are all too few authors… who not only know their subject but can write well about it. Tom Cunliffe is one.' Cruising 'This book covers it all, from boarding and berthing to engines and navigation' Sailing Today
