Welcome to the 2021 update of "Sailboat Cruising." For anyone who wants to move up from day sailing to "coastal cruising," this program will cover systems onboard a sailing yacht: electrical, plumbing, head, galley, anchoring system, navigation and rigging. Also, rules and regulations, collision avoidance, weather, comparison of sailboat types, and tips for bareboat chartering.

Audience 1 - Those with knowledge of basic sailing who want to move up to coastal cruising. Audience 2 - Those who have gone cruising and want to deepen their knowledge. Audience 3 - A primer for friends and family who may come along as passengers and need to use onboard systems and stay safe on a cruising sailboat.

Everything you need to know.

This is the most comprehensive and clear guide that I have ever heard for Cruising. They cover every aspect of chartering a boat and or cruising on a boat. If you’re new to Celine, or are experienced with Celine and are interested in cruising, this is a wealth of knowledge.

Good information only style book

I have been around power boats most of my life, (power boats). I wanted something very basic, that was informational only. this is it.

Nothing too in depth.... but a great place to start.

I am glad I read this book.

Amazing content, amazing presentation. If you are looking how to get into sailing, this is the book for you. From boat mechanics to rules, navigation, physics of sailing, all here in a newbie friendly format.

Clear and concise delivery of sailing essentials

Where does Sailboat Cruising (AUDIOTOPICS) rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Best delivery of sailing essentials from the basics to insights gained from years of experience. I recommend Sailboat Cruising for sailing newcomers to develop a strong foundation of sailing essentials to experienced sailors as a review before their next sailing trip. This audio book is a great addition to your sailing reference library.
