Sail, Race and Win by Eric Twiname

The aim of this book is to help any racing sailor at any level and in any boat to coach themselves to be successful. It looks at the reasons for losing and turns these into a plan of attack by concentrating on attention to detail. Mental and physical fitness are examined, practical suggestions for improvement are made, and insights to help the reader handle different crises are included. Term sailing is also examined using the same concept as self-coaching. The book highlights the assertion that a winning attitude is at least equal to, and perhaps more important than having the best in design, hardware and technology. Cathy Foster has revised this edition. She was IYRU Women's double-handed World Champion in 1978 and 1979 and in 1984 was the first helmswoman ever to compete in the Olympic Games in the then mixed 470 class.
