Download or read book Rescue from Beyond the Roaring Forties written by Raphael Dinelli and published by Adlard Coles Nautical Press. This book was released on 1998-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vendee Globe Challenge is the ultimate ocean race: a singlehanded circumnavigation, without port of call & without outside assistance. Raphael Dinelli, youngest & least experienced of the sixteen yachtsmen & women to set sail in November 1996 for what was to prove the most dramatic race in its history, was without doubt the luckiest of them all. Here, for the first time, he tells the story of his horrendous capsize & dismasting in the Southern Ocean-the fear, the utter exhaustion, the numbing cold of the Antarctic waters-of his amazing rescue against all odds by fellow skipper Pete Goss (later to receive the Legion d'Honneur from the President of France for his exploit), & of the firm friendship this extraordinary rescue was to cement. This is also the story of a burning mission: to challenge the sea head-on. Dinelli describes the struggle to turn mission into reality, from his earliest years at the leading edge of the then new sport of windsurfing to his departure as an outsider in the Vendee Globe fleet. This is a story of human endeavour, endurance and, ultimately, survival which draws the reader inexorably along through its physical & emotional highs & lows.

Download or read book Heavy Weather Sailing 7th edition written by Peter Bruce and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 50 years Heavy Weather Sailing has been regarded as the ultimate international authority on surviving storms at sea aboard sailing and motor vessels. The first edition was compiled by Kaines Adlard Coles himself in 1967. Since then technology may have improved, but the weather certainly hasn't. This is the seventh updated edition, edited by racing yachtsman Peter Bruce, ensuring that in its 50th year the book remains as relevant and as essential as it has been for the previous five decades. The book brings together a wealth of expert advice from many of the great sailors of the present, including fresh accounts of yachts overtaken by extreme weather, from Ewan Southby-Tailyour, Alex Whitworth and Peter Cook to Larry and Lin Pardey. It also includes a new Foreword by Sir Robin Knox-Johnston, Britain's most high profile yachtsman of the past 50 years. The expert advice section has been updated in line with current thinking, and there has been a major update to the chapter focusing on the use of storm sails as well as to the use of drag devices. The technique of taking refuge has been reviewed and updated, and the chapters dealing with preparations for heavy weather and its effect on yacht design have been overhauled. These revisions ensure that Heavy Weather Sailing is as relevant, useful and instructive for today's sailor venturing offshore as it ever was – perhaps more so in the light of tragic disasters like the loss of the Cheeky Raffiki mid-Atlantic on a delivery trip after her season racing in the Caribbean. This is the definitive book for crews of any size contemplating voyages out of sight of land anywhere in the world, whether racing or cruising. It gives a clear message regarding the preparations required, and the tactics to consider when it comes on to blow.
