“In yachting magazines and books, one finds many interesting articles on racing tactics, oat tests, how to sail faster, stories of cruises, and wheat gear to buy, but only occasionally an article on seamanship, and the personal expertise required to enable a boat to accomplish a cruise safely.
We read we must have certain safety equipment, but rarely read of instructions for its use and maintenance.”
