Download or read book Sailboat Cruising Can Be A Breeze written by Frederick B. Cooley and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-09 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of us have sailed or rowed small boats - dinghies, canoes, rowboats, Sailfishes, Lasers, Penguins, and hundreds more. Less have participated in sailboat races, and probably even less have done overnight cruises in various size sailboats. Those of us who have cruised overnight (as opposed to "daysailing") have found a remarkable world of new experiences, including - views of sunrise & sunset never seen before - weather of all sorts experienced up close & personal - new and different friends - new and different approaches to small towns located on the waterfront - peace & quiet under sail or at anchor - ecological travel (10-15 Gallons of diesel per summer for docking & getting home when becalmed or bad weather coming) - luxury camping on our boat that does duty as our summer home, motorhome, and occasional family fun racer - the learning of sailing itself, a forgiving sport when modest common sense is applied. We wish others to share this abundant and affordable lifestyle. As the main photographer, I hope others will also have the opportunity to share the visual feast that cruising presents. The beauty will be evident, and you only have to point & shoot.

The three authors, who have each voyaged thousands of miles with children on board, provide a factual and balanced look at the realities of family life on the sea. From their own experience and with information from interviews with dozens of other voyaging parents, they discuss caring for an infant on board, handling the changing needs of children as they grow, education options, ensuring parents find the private time to keep their relationships in tune, and helping children make the eventual transition back to shore life. Added to the authors’ voices are sidebars from other cruising parents with specialized information on subjects as diverse as handling special diets and how your children can keep in touch with friends around the world. A unique bonus chapter, written by a dozen former cruising kids, looks at the long-term effects of breaking away from shoreside normalcy. A substantial appendix of resources provides valuable further information on the subjects covered in this book. It is said that every parent inflicts their lifestyle choices on their children. Read this book to find why heading out to sea with your children may be the most rewarding infliction of all.

Download or read book Cruising With Class written by Stan Zimmerman and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2007-02-26 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many beginning sailors soon yearn for a larger boat - with a galley, head and berths - so they can extend their time on the water and range of action. However, the simple mechanics of sailing do not include the variety of arts necessary to cruise successfully. Cruising (with) Class began as a series of lectures at the Sarasota (Florida) Sailing Squadron with the intention of teaching basic skills to beginning cruisers. Comfort on the water is not a matter of soft cushions. It comes from confidence in the ability to voyage safely. Reading the weather, planting the anchor, calculating the tides, navigating a coast, avoiding fatigue, choosing equipment, coping with storms, reacting to disasters, these are the arts of a cruiser. Although the book calls on the author's 25 years of cruising small sailboats, it is not a travelogue. Instead, it is a precise iteration of lessons learned the hard way, and presented in sailor-to-sailor fashion so others can avoid disaster and find comfort bred in confidence on the water.
