Reviews for Illustrated Sail & Rig Tuning: Genoa & Mainsail Trim, Spinnaker & Gennaker, Rig Tuning

This book is different... I recommend this little book to everyone - whether expert or novice you'll find something. (Sailing Today) Filled to the brim with every scrap of information that both novice and experienced sailor will welcome as a 'must have' addition to their bookshelves. (Multihull World) Every keelboat sailor should have a copy of this book. (Danish Sailing Association) Simply outstanding. (Sailrite) I will urge anyone who takes their sailing seriously to buy a copy. (Cruising Magazine) The best we've seen. (Good Old Boat Magazine) This is a great book to have to get the most out of your sailboat, no matter what the size. (TrailerSailor) Very thorough. (Yachting Monthly)
