"...it is always interesting and very readable." -- Sailing "Filled with practical advice, this book is a winner." -- The Ensign "Vigor, whos written for several boating magazines, has brought his experience and sense of humor to bear on the less than ideal experiences of sailing--and hes even alphabetized them...Its fun to page through and you just might learn a thing or two."-- Soundings: An Interdisciplinary Journal "This book is easy to read. It imparts some very valuable information in a fun package." -- Good Old Boat "This is a great reference book for those just entering the world of sailing, and entertaining." -- Latitudes & Attitudes "Vigor, whos written for several boating magazines, has brought his experience and sense of humor to bear on the less than ideal experiences of sailing--and hes even alphabetized them...Its fun to page through and you just might learn a thing or two." -- Soundings

Synopsis
John Vigor knows a Thing or Two about Sailing. He's been at it for decades in sailboats of all kinds racing (he's a national champion), cruising (he has tens of thousands of miles of blue-water crossings), and generally messing about (there is no place he'd rather be). John Vigor knows a thing or two about writing as well. A journalist by trade, he was o reporter, columnist, and editor, and he's written more than a few best-selling books about sailing. Things I Wish I'd Known Before I Started Sailing is a gift, a blessing for sailors of all stripes, a condensation of all he has learned over the years. Here's a small taste, but look inside for the full banquet: Don't waste your money on high-powered binoculars. Inflatable dinghies aren't all that good. Don't delude yourself there is no perfect boat. Book jacket., John Vigor knows a thing or two about sailing.
