Sailing is for all kinds of people - cruisers, racers, adventurers, poets - and for people who just like the feeling of the breeze on their face and the sound of water going by. But before you can enjoy the satisfaction that comes from steering a sailboat around a harbor by yourself, it's important that you understand the basic principals of sailling.

We have collected what we think you ought to know about how a sailboat works and how you can make it work for you. About the "rules of the road" when you're sailing or racing around other boats. About safety - how to keep from capsizing, how to stay warm and dry, and about the equipment you'll need to do so.
