Yacht Design Explained

Co-authored with Doug Hunter

Cover of Yacht Design Explained

"This is the new 'Bible' of yacht design. Unusually well-illustrated and clearly written for lay people, Yacht Design Explained tells how sailboats of all kinds are designed and work. While the authors, a respected yacht designer and a boating writer, give theory due attention, they do not stray from practicalities." - John Rousmaniere

The Science of Sailing
Co-authored with Doug Hunter

Cover of The Science of Sailing

The Science of Sailing deals with the more fundamental aspects of sailing. How do boats really work. Why do keels and centerboards help you sail to windward? Are block and tackles always beneficial? Why do longer boats go faster? How can boats sail to windward at all? Packed with illustrations and photos to make it all clear, The Science of Sailing is for racing and cruising sailors.
