How to choose the right yacht

Mehr zum Buch

Most yachts at boat shows look almost identical - so how can aprospective buyer judge a yacht's sailing abilities from the salesbrochure alone? A variety of questions present themselves: Is she a fast or slow boat? Will she hold her course well? Is she light on the helm? Does she ride the waves comfortably? Will she respond to a light breeze or does she prefer a heavy blow? Can she be sailed easily by a small family crew? This book aims to help interested buyers answer these questions and many more from the comfort of their home without even stepping aboard! 'A splendid little book which sets out to compress the knowledge of a lifetime into a very small space.' Guernsey Evening Press 'This is the text to take you beyond the catalogues, boat show displays and hype.' Lloyds List
