Heavy Weather Sailing

Know what to do when the wind pipes up!

This guide shows you how to prepare your boat in harbor and at sea; how to shorten sail at the best time, the best way; how to choose effective storm tactics and how to keep your crew safe; plus, how to adapt your strategy to your boat and the situation.

On the water, when questions arise, there's no time to search through an exhaustive manual. The Captain's Quick Guides provide all the answers—fast.

Hinged and laminated for durability and resistance to water damage
Carefully organized with color illustrations for instant, easy answers
Ideal for emergency situations with an at-your-fingertips format
Just right for tight quarters, where space is an issue
