Book The Rules Book

Download or read book The Rules Book written by Eric Twiname and published by Sheridan House, Inc.. This book was released on 2004-12 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bestselling pocket-sized racing rules book has been fully revised for this edition. The entire 2005-2008 racing rules are included. In revising The Rules Book to take account of the rule changes, Bryan Willis has maintained Eric Twiname's unique method of presentation, which has proved popular with racers over many editions. The Rules Book is unique in that it assumes a race situation and then looks at the rules that apply, instead of examining the rules in turn and discussing which situations govern. The reader works his way around the course from the Start, to the Windward Mark, Downwind Legs, to the Finish, studying all the situations that might arise. USSA and ISAF appeal case numbers are given for further reference.

Book The Rules in Practice 2021 2024

Download or read book The Rules in Practice 2021 2024 written by Bryan Willis and published by Fernhurst Books Limited. This book was released on 2020-11-21 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rules in Practice has been the best-selling guide to the racing rules for the last 40 years. Now, in its 10th edition, it has been updated for (and contains in full) the 2021-2024 Racing Rules of Sailing and features a brand new chapter on the luffing rules and how they are being applied. The latest rule changes are also described, along with their impact on you as a sailor. With over 20 new scenarios, reflecting the courses we now sail, it is as up-to-date and relevant as the first edition was in 1985. Unlike other rules guides which take you through the rules in order, this book tackles the subject from the sailors' point of view. It takes you around the race course, from start to finish, through the key situations that occur repeatedly showing, from the point of view of each boat in turn, what you may, must, or cannot do. You don't have to know all the rules off by heart, but you do need to know your rights and obligations on the water – the rules can be looked up afterwards. This knowledge will build your confidence while racing and enable you to make the most of opportunities when they arise. Colour diagrams throughout ensure concepts are easily understood. If you are going to buy one rule book – make it this one! (As dictated by World Sailing, the eBook does not contain the Racing Rules of Sailing but has a link to them.)

As workplace leaders; the managers that deal most frequently with the front line staff have the greatest impact on a workplace's culture and funtionality. They are unique in their position to directly impact productivity and growth. Couple this with the fact every workplace has its own intrinsic rules that are not written down as policy or process, but are every bit as critical to a manager's effectiveness. Awareness and adherance to these unwritten rules is key to effective management. Inside "The Unwritten Rules" are twenty of the most important and the most applicable unwritten rules found in most businesses and organizations. Non-adherance to these rules can negatively impact employees and companies in many ways. One usually learns these rules over time as hindsight reveals their reality and importance. "The Unwritten Rules" saves you that time!

Book Learning the Rule of the Road

Download or read book Learning the Rule of the Road written by Basil Mosenthal and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2009-11-03 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A good working knowledge of the Rule of the Road is essential for both skippers and crew of yachts and motorboats - as well as everyone else who goes to sea. It is also an important part of RYA Day Skipper and Yachtmaster courses. Learning the Rule of the Road includes the full text of The International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, but because these Regulations are lengthy and detailed they are not always easy to understand - nor is it easy to find your way around. This guide takes those sections of the rules that particularly affect small craft, and explains them briefly and simply. Lights, shapes and sounds signals are clearly set out, as are the basic steering and sailing rules. The full text of the Regulations is also included at the end of the book for reference. This guide is ideal for beginners but is also an ideal aide-memoire for those with more experience. 'Don't put to sea without a copy!
