RESUMEN DEL LIBRO:
THE ANNAPOLIS SAILING SCHOOL GUIDE FOR ALL AGES. Hoisting your sails, riding the wind, heading off across the bay for a day of exploring, racing, or simply messing about... there really is nothing that can compare with the excitement, freedom, and sheer satisfaction of sailing. Our goal is to help you learn to sail. We begin by learning about the boat, the names of its parts, how it's built, and how sails, rudders, and centerboards work. Then we learn how to rig a small sailboat and how to make it go where we want it to go, and do what we want it to do. We'll learn about safety, how to handle bad weather, and how to tie simple knots that sailors haved used for centuries. And by the way are Di Goodman, Ina Brodie, and Joan Machinchick. Di has been beginners of all ages to sail for many years at the Annapolis Sailing School. Together they created a basic book, using the proven instruction methods of the world's largest sailing school, to guide you through the theory and practice of sailing.
APRENDIENDO A NAVEGAR: Este libro ayuda a aprender a navegar. Empieza por el barco, nombre de las partes que lo componen; cómo trabajan las velas y los aparejos. A continuación, cómo hacer que la embarcación haga lo que queremos y vaya donde nosotros queramos. Después trata de conceptos básicos de seguridad y cómo manejarse en caso de mal tiempo, y finalmente, cómo hacer los nudos más utilizados por los marinos a través de los siglos.
PRECIO: 19,90 Euros
