There are many excellent books on sailing but very few devoted solely to dinghies. This is a book suited to those whose interest is mainly in just plain sailing, rather than those who wish to race. It contains a number of fairly original suggestions from the author who has found them to be successful on his own general purpose dinghy. A useful book for anyone interested in ’messing about’ with as well as in their boats.
