Title: Paul Elvstrom Explains the Racing Rules of Sailing, 2001-2004 by Soren Krause ISBN: 0-07-137609-7 Publisher: International Marine/Ragged Mountain Press Pub. Date: 17 May, 2001 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $22.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 4.5 (2 reviews)
Rating: 4
Summary: The rules according to living legend.
Comment: This concise book is divided into two parts: 1) a copy of the published ISAF rules--a must for all would-be racers 2) interpretations of said rules by Elvstrom himself.
If you don't already know it, Elvstrom is a legendary sailor (winner of four Olympic gold medals and numerous other sailing prizes). His expertise shines through as he explains the rules of racing. There aren't any long drawn out stories in this book. No anecdotes of any kind; just simple explanations of situations that you encounter on the race course. He clearly points out who is right and who is wrong in each situation and thus you gain an understanding of what is and isn't proper while racing. This is an excellent book for the beginning racer who wants to gain a firm understanding of the rules in a short period of time. If you are looking for something more extensive and lively I recommend the Dave Perry's explanation of the rules!
