Ah Tabarly. Maestro de maestros. Una guía excepcional. Sobre todo si te quedas sin motor y necesitas entrar en puerto.
Fuera bromas: buenas explicaciones y aclaraciones sobre el por qué de algunas maniobras.

Brief and to the point. Pertains largely to the author's own sailboats. Presupposes familiarity with sailboat terminology and nautical jargon. But given the above, it was well written and enjoyable.
