Have you ever sat by the water, watched people sailing and wished you were out there too? If so, this book is for you. You can learn to sail from an early age; there are more sailing clubs and sailing schools than ever before and modern lightweight construction mean there is a wide choice of boats for children to sail.
The great thing about sailing is that it means different things to different people; it can be fast and exciting, gentle and relaxing, or a bit of both. Whatever type you choose, there is the enjoyment and freedom of being out there on the water using nothing but the wind and your own skill to get where you want to go.
