Year: - Language: English Author: Glendinning R. Genre: Manual Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 55 Description: This course has two phases: a series of 10 lessons giving you the background material that can be learned without much practical experience. When you cruise on Keewatin, you will be able to put much of your background learning to use and you will develop additional practical skills; marlinespike seamanship (knotting), steering by compass, piloting in coral waters by eye, dinghy work, skin-diving, swabbing decks, etc. You will then fill out what you have learned in these pages. The objective of the course is to give you enough basic knowledge and practical experience to enable you to go cruising on a small sailing yacht, and to conduct your cruise with the maximum of safety and enjoyment. Therefore, the 10 lessons include, beside the basic elements of sailing, enough practical knowledge of chart and compass, tides, anchors and anchoring, the Rules of the Road, management in heavy weather, etc. Hopefully, the information will keep you out of trouble, or at least, to get you out of trouble if you manage to foul up somehow
