Through their brisk banter, carried on at races and in yacht club bars and sail lofts, we learn the secrets of successful sailboat racing in all kinds of weather and tactical situations.Using fifty up-to-date examples, Tom Linskey gets us out on the water and reveals why the same people win, race after race. Discussions cover everything from teamwork, strategy, sails, starts and rules to the all-important psychological preparation that will help even the average sailor sail faster and win more races.Linskey, Tom is the author of 'Race Winning Strategies Smart Lessons With Deep Dakron' with ISBN 9780924486883 and ISBN 0924486880.
