Bryan Willis’ Racing Rules Companion is the invaluable pocket reference guide to the essentials of the racing rules, updated for the latest 2021-2024 Racing Rules of Sailing.  Every racing sailor should have a copy! It will build their knowledge and make them more confident on the race course. 

This book welcomes you to the world of boat maintenance. Take this book in one hand, a spanner in the other and set to work. It concentrates on the 67 most common jobs. Each is rated for difficulty on a scale of 1-5 and is explained in simple steps with lots of photos and diagrams. No special tools are required and no skill is assumed.

There are plenty of sailing and seamanship skills that don’t feature on the syllabus of even the most advanced sailing course – and a wealth of such wisdom can be found in these pages.
