Excerpt: ... the steersman in holding it, all that is required is to slip the rope round the tiller head and belay to a pin, if there are no tiller ropes, beckets ought to be fitted on each side) get hold of one part of the main sheet and haul in the slack as the boom comes in, this steadies it until it fills again; the man forward, as soon as the jib blows over the forestay, must haul in the opposite jib sheet quickly, ere the wind gets full power on the sail. If she is at all slack in stays, keep the fore bowline fast until she is fairly round, when sing out "Let draw," and the foresail will blow over to leeward of itself, when the bowline can be hauled taut and made fast to the fore shroud on the lee side, this also helps to keep the foresail flat. While in stays a pull may be taken at any of the halliards which require tautening up, that is if you have a spare hand or two. The foresail ought to work on a traverse or horse in a cruising yacht, because there is one head sheet the less to look after. We are supposed to have started on the port tack, the yacht is now on the starboard, that is, her port or left hand side is to leeward. The wind has come round a bit in that little puff which so exhilarated our amateur friend; it is getting lighter though, and the skipper has muttered something about the big topsail. Now, then, is the time to get it on deck, if you are working short boards it would be better to wait until the yacht is again about on the port tack, because that is the side on which the topsail is set, but owing to the shift of wind she is just lying her course although still close hauled. Send a hand aloft to cast off the lacing of the jib headed topsail, if it is not laced there is no occasion; ease away sheet and halliards...

This book was released on 2017-06-25 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Corinthian Yachtsman, or Hints on Yachting Who was the first yachtsman, and what sort of a craft was the first yacht? Is a question that is not unfrequently asked by inquirers into the origin of our national sport, and, to the majority of persons, a rather puzzling one. That yachting as understood at present in England, dates from a comparatively modern period, it would be folly to deny at the same time there is little doubt that, long anterior to the reign of Charles II., who is popularly supposed to have introduced a taste for yacht sailing into England, the inhabitants of these islands disported themselves on the water in boats. Have we not historical evidence to prove that many of our kings and princes, since the conquest, kept sailing boats for their own pleasure? Of course sailing vessels were first used as a means of transport only, but when it was found how much pleasure and enjoyment could be extracted out of such craft, vessels built for the sole purposes of pleasure naturally came into vogue. In the East Indies the Rajahs and their courtiers possessed swift sailing boats, in which they sailed about for amusement at the time of Vasco de Gama, and there is every reason to believe that such was also the case prior to the invasion of Alexander the Great. Readers of Plutarch will also remember many references to pleasure trips by water. Like the Chinese, the natives of India have not altered the form or shape of their sailing vessels in any material degree since they were first visited by Europeans and from careful researches, it is evident they reached their present proficiency in naval architecture centuries before the christian era.
