Championship Tactics by Gary Jobson

This is the tactical manual for the racing sailor. This comprehensive volume contains lessons from decades of world class competition. Gary Jobson was a college champion, and racer in three America's Cup campaigns, twice as Ted Turtier's tactician and once with Tom Blackaller. Tom Whidden called the tactics in three of the America's Cup campaigns he sailed with Dennis Conner. Now both share the experiences gained at the top for the benefit of racers of single-handed dinghies right through to maxi boats. The book combines expert advice with a collection of anecdotes from the greatest races of our time. It explains how to gather vital information on conditions before a race, and how to record what you've learned.
