Description:
As most of us have discovered, embarrassing bad boat handling moments happen when we are in a harbour or marina. Without fail there will always be an audience of fellow boaters (and your crew!) who, while initially sympathetic, are unlikely ever to let you forget it! Most boaters agree that "take offs and landings" are the most difficult and stressful areas of boating but that once the general principles and rules are mastered, you are soon able to safely and confidently deal with most common situations. The object of this audiobook edition of the RYA Boat Handling for Sail and Power is to help you gain a fuller understanding of boat handling by dealing with a wide variety of situations in a thoughtful and logical way. Duration - 3h 16m. Author - Rob Gibson. Narrator - Chris Ryle Wright. Published Date - Saturday, 11 January 2025. Copyright - © 2008 Royal Yachting Association ©.
