Description

The racing rules bible, completely updated for the latest 2017-2020 Racing Rules of Sailing. You don't have to know all the rules off by heart, but you do need to know your rights and obligations on the water - the rules can be looked up afterwards. This book takes you through the key situations that occur repeatedly on the race course showing, from the point of view of each boat in turn, what you may, must, or cannot do. Colour diagrams throughout ensure concepts are easily understood. The book also contains the new Racing Rules of Sailing in full, with all the Appendices. The latest rule changes are highlighted, along with their impact on you as a sailor. The Rules in Practice has been the racing rules bible for over 30 years, written by Bryan Willis who is an acknowledged rules expert.

Media Reviews

"Bryan Willis' approach is situation-based and practical, rather than rules-based and technical... Under the diagrams that clearly set out each on-the-water situation, he carefully takes the reader through what each boat can and can't do, as well as how their rights and obligations change at each stage... The text is peppered with useful tactical insights and tips" (Sailing) "An excellent book: ideal for all sailors who race, or are thinking of racing." (Little Ship Club)
