Anyone who has come across Des Sleightholme's bitingly witty writing will know they are in for a treat with this book.In his usual hilarious tongue-in-cheek manner, Des Sleightholme seeksto introduce the newcomer to the joys of cruising, explaining how to goabout choosing a boat, what is likely to happen on your first time out,coping with tides, knots, and etiquette, and how to behave in marinas.In his own inimitable words: 'This book is for all those who arewilling to leave the empties on the doorstep and their teeth on thebathroom shelf and go to sea. Having spent many a fascinating houraground on the Buxey, keel banging like a town band drummer and prayingin a loud falsetto voice, there's no doubt that it's a sport whichbroadens both mind and buttock.' Read it and you'll curl up!'Des Sleightholme is one of the very few genuinely funny yachting writers' - Andrew Bray, Yachting World
