The first of a new series of sail racing books. Joe
Glanfield covers all the technical essentials needed to
succeed in crewed boats."We highly recommend [this
book] to dinghy helms as well as crews who want to develop
their skills. Crew to Win contains over 100 pages in full
colour covering all aspects of dinghy crewing from
choosing a boat, a helm, and personal kit, to specific
championship techniques for both traditional and high
quality dinghies.
"As well as the expected boat handling techniques,
there are sections on profiling and goal setting -
techniques we can all use to identify which areas of our
sailing we should be concentrating on - and regatta
preparation and tactics.
"There is also an underlying insight into the way in
which our professional dinghy sailors go about their
training and their mentality toward the sport - points
which can help us improve, whatever our ambitions.
"Clear graphics and sharp, relevant pictures bring
the messages home. The best picture is saved until last: a
double spread of Joe and Nick laughing as they invert
their 470 during one of the high wind photo shoot
sequences!" Dinghy Sailing Magazine
