If you are that friend or relation, give your prospective novice shipmate a copy to read before you set sail. * Cruising Association Magazine * About the Author A Cambridge-educated engineer, Bill Johnson swapped his career for long distance sailing. He stopped logging miles sailed somewhere around 50,000.

Brilliant little handbook
Taking some friends out for a sail? Want them to be as well-prepared as they can? Lend them this book for a week or two in advance - job done! Well, almost!A great little volume outlining in simple terms what may be expected of them (if they're going to join in and are not just there for the ride). Nothing too heavy, just the routines for starting and stopping, raising and lowering sails, living on board, just the essentials, all laid out in rational order in a pocket-size volume. Very readable style, and full of little highlighted Tips, not always just for the novices, either!

Perfect Pocket Book for New Crew
A great little book to help those new to sailing as crew who want to take things further or if just going for a weekend or day out on a sailing boat. Definitions and terms are well explained as well as expectations of what may be required even for the novice. Lots of examples and illustrations that help explain the text that makes an easy and informative read.
