Book suggestions - sailing 27' sloop
I just got a 27' fin keel sloop. It's been almost 30 years since I last sailed on schooners and owned a 1930's 26' open sloop. Can anyone recommend a decent book that focuses on sail handling and boat handling? This boat has some strings and sails that I am nor familiar with the operation of: Boom vang, backstay adjuster, spinnaker, etc... I have a copy of Chapman's Piloting, and some sailing books that focus on navigation and outfitting.
Stay calm, be brave....wait for the signs. Possibly precariously prevaricating.
