CAPABLE CRUISER CL by Lin Pardey

CAPABLE CRUISER CL by Lin Pardey

The Capable Cruiser is a logical extension of the Pardeys' The Self-Sufficient Sailor (978-0964603677), with more emphasis on seamanship underway, including careful analysis of extreme anchoring situations and solutions for mitigating them. Underlying each and every chapter is the warmth and encouragement that spurred Herb McCormick, former editor of Cruising World magazine, to label Lin and Larry Pardey the enablers. This revised and expanded third edition of a cruising classic includes 10 completely new chapters with such advice as: 16 ways to encourage your lover (partner) to share your dream; strategies for turning sudden engine failure into a minor incident; choosing safety equipment and repairing rigging at sea. All of the original chapters have been updated to ensure that the information will be helpful for everyone who dreams of cruising-whether now or in the near future.

Pardey, Lin: - Lin has voyaged more than 200,000 miles on boats ranging from 24 feet to more than 60. Her seminars, the 12 books and 5 videos she created, have encouraged thousands of potential voyagers to set sail. Her voyages have taken her to more than 74 different countries. After 47 years of voyaging she settled in at her home base in New Zealand, to care for Larry through his decline due to Parkinson's disease and dementia. With Larry now in full time care, she has once again set sail towards Australia as crew on David Haigh's 40 foot Van de Stadt, Sahula. Between return visits to see Larry, she looks forward to sharing more cruising.
