RYA Sail Trim Handbook

This audiobook of the RYA Sail Trim Handbook is crammed with useful tips and pointers on one of the fundamentals of good seamanship: sail trim.

Sail trim can be bewildering to the novice, but this audiobook talks you through the subject in an informative, entertaining manner, with a focus on the needs of the cruising sailor rather than the out-and-out racer. After all, a well-trimmed cruising yacht will be better balanced, easier to handle, and will sail more comfortably.

Chapters include:

– How Sails Work

– Jibs & Genoas

– Spinnakers

– Reefing

– Sailing Upwind

– Heavy Weather Sailing

– Trade Wind Sailing

This audiobook will have you itching to get back afloat and tinkering with the trim of your sails.
