Reseña del editor:

Incorporating many years of research, this book contains the author's theories on the design and handling of sailing craft and is a follow-up to his "Sailing Theory and Practice". Clear explanations and calculations help to quantify the many factors which determine a sailboat's performance. This edition incorporates new research on hull and sail behaviour, the performance and efficiency of aerofoils and hydrofoils, the principles underlying high speed sailing and recent developments in keel shapes, with particular reference to 12 metre yacht designs. The author Professor Tony Marchaj, is a former Polish Finn champion and is now an independent aerodynamic and research scientist.
