Reviews
Tim Davison has drawn on his well of knowledge, using it to ensure the newbie's apprehension is put to rest quickly. It is a book that will surely allow the newcomer to become a competent, confident crew; and even the 'old hands' may do well to reacquaint themselves with some of the advice on offer. (Sailing Magazine); A useful ready-reckoner. (Yachting Monthly).
This book is written in a very friendly and approachable way, with clear diagrams and de-mystified language... This book would be a great one to have on board and to share with potential first-time crew prior to departure... It is a virtual Competent Crew course in a pocketsize offering. (Moody Owners' Association) We were introduced to sailing some years ago. We would have loved to have this little book at the time to prepare us for what was to come and later to consolidate our knowledge as we gained confidence at crewing. The book delivers on its promises of providing the basics to crew on a boat, keep safe and have fun... Throughout there are excellent diagrams and clear colour photographs to illustrate the text (Cruising Association) A useful little sailing book intended to be read in advance of a first sailing trip and kept for reference thereafter... Effective use is made of diagrams and photographs. (Yachting Monthly)
