‘Having this book on board is like having an experienced hand beside you to help you through.’ Shetland Times
‘I have recently read your Complete Day Skipper book which I thoroughly enjoyed and have just started your Complete Yachtmaster. I wanted to tell you that I think they are absolutely first class books. They have a wealth of information in them but the style of your writing is light so they are very easy to read. I know that there is nothing better than gaining experience out on the water but these books are of huge help to both my wife and I. I would strongly recommend them to anyone who is taking their RYA qualifications, or even if they are just enthusiastic sailors. Many thanks for passing on your huge experience in such a clear and no-nonsense manner.’ Tyrrell
‘This book covers it all, from boarding and berthing to engines and navigation.’ Sailing Today
