Product Description:
How to trim the foresail – jib or genoa – on a yacht or dinghy.
Jib trim is critical to a boat’s speed. This book de-mystifies the black art. It uses plain language and crystal-clear diagrams and photos to teach the concepts and show the sailor exactly what to do. There is no other book this specific – or this useful!

Great book!! I read it and tried the techniques. What a difference!Jib Trimming: An Illustrated Guide
Rating: -
Small boat owners have plenty of nautical 'how-to' titles to choose from, but three new arrivals are outstanding picks. Felix marks' JIB TRIMMING: AN ILLUSTRATED GUIDE demystifies the art of jib trimming and focuses instead on a visual approach which uses diagrams and black and white photos throughout to explore the mechanics of jib trimming. From cleats and winches to concepts of tacking and footing, JIB TRIMMING clearly illustrates a potentially confusing topic.
