{"product_id":"sailing-peter-heaton-9781447411598","title":"Sailing","description":"This vintage book is a complete and accessible guide to sailing. Designed especially for the 'landlubber', this volume provides just enough information to enable anyone to take out a small boat and bring her back safely. \"Sailing\" has been carefully selected for a modern readership, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: \"What This Book is All About\", \"The Parts of the Ship\", \"Moorings\", \"Knots and Splicing\", \"Bending Sails and Hoisting Them\", \"The Theory of Sailing\", \"Getting Under Way\", \"Before The Wind\", \"Reaching\", \"Close-Hauled\", \"Anchoring, Picking up Moorings and Storing Ship\", \"Helmsmanship, Trim and Ballast\", \"Reefing, and Bad Weather Tactics\", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on sailing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Heaton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1447411595\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447411598\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomspon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/19\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.60d","brand":"Peter Heaton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935825756415,"sku":"9781447411598","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_9496da85-a687-4c0d-a377-562fce1d9090.jpg?v=1681422026","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sailing-peter-heaton-9781447411598","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
