Teach Yourself to Sail. A quick-start guide to yachting for the weekend warrior. Sure, if you want to sail through the Bermuda Triangle, you need a deep understanding of many seemingly unrelated disciplines. From physics to weather, to knot tying, to celestial navigation, to maneuvering a motor boat, to first aid, to operating a 2-way radio, the list goes on and on. To be a recreational sailor however, you only need a bit from each one of these categories. Just enough to get you by, to get you out on the water quickly and safely, having fun. This guide cuts through the clutter that is ...

Internationally known author, Wang Fuzhi, brings us "A Disquiet of Eels", a short story that explores the complex and mysterious nature of love.

An excellent guide whether you are new to sailing or thinking of upgrading your existing boat. This indispensable, fully illustrated book will take you through the steps of buying a boat, help with deciding on the best mooring, and appraise you of the basics of repairs and maintenance. A boat can very easily be the second largest purchase you make, after a house and frequently well ahead of the price of a car. Houses have historically gone up in value, and whilst boats tend to have a fairly long life, their values only go one way in the end. Boats can rarely be accused of being an ...

Sailing on a boat by yourself out at sea and out of sight of land can be exhilarating or terrifying, compelling or tedious - sometimes it can be all of these things just in one morning. It is an adventure at odds with our normal, sociable lives, carried out floating on a medium wholly inimical to our existence. But the deep ocean is also a remarkable place on which to think. Richard King's enormously engaging and curious book is about the debt we owe to solo sailors: women and men, young and old, who have set out alone.

This is the true story of Ted, Viscount Deerhurst, the son of the Earl of Coventry and an American ballerina who dedicated his life to becoming a professional surfer. Surfing was a means of escape, from England, from the fraught charges of nobility, from family, and, often, from his own demons. Surf, Sweat and Tears takes us into the world of global surfing, revealing a dark side beneath the dazzling sun and cream-crested waves. Here is surf noir at its most compelling; a dystopian tale of one man’s obsessions, wiped out in a grisly true crime.

I was paddling hard with the wind and waves coming across my port bow. The storm had calmed down a bit and I was making a mile long mad dash from The Evergreen State College Beach to Young Cove. To the right inside Young Cove was my lagoon and my Madrona tree to which I tie up my various small water craft.

This charming account of the voyage of two men in a small boat half way round the world from Plymouth to New Zealand in 1953 is a rare insight into a time, not long ago, when sailors had no GPS, electronics, radio or any of the mod cons that we take for granted today. Without lifejacket or a life raft, they 'just took what came along', hand steering all the way, navigating by sextant, hand-cranking their engine and using oil lamps for light at night and for navigation. Sailors will be staggered how primitive conditions were only a few decades ago, even though it was the norm at the time.

I would like to take you on a journey. It’s going to be a journey across many oceans, over a lot of water but very much a journey of the human spirit. This is not a sailing story. It’s much more than that. My seven crew and I participated in the fatal 1998 Sydney to Hobart yacht race in which 6 men tragically died, 55 were rescued and a number of boats sank. On our boat, for 15 hours, we thought that we had found out how we were going to die. By a slim margin, we managed to survive that incredible cornerstone event in each of our lives.
