Download or read book The Boys in the Boat (Movie Tie-In) written by Daniel James Brown and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiration for the Major Motion Picture Directed by George Clooney—exclusively in theaters December 25, 2023! The #1 New York Times bestselling true story about the American rowing triumph of the 1936 Olympics in Berlin—from the author of Facing the Mountain For readers of Unbroken, out of the depths of the Depression comes an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times—the improbable, intimate account of how nine working-class boys from the American West showed the world at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin what true grit really meant. It was an unlikely quest from the start. With a team composed of the sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the University of Washington’s eight-oar crew team was never expected to defeat the elite teams of the East Coast and Great Britain, yet they did, going on to shock the world by defeating the German team rowing for Adolf Hitler. The emotional heart of the tale lies with Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, who rows not only to regain his shattered self-regard but also to find a real place for himself in the world. Drawing on the boys’ own journals and vivid memories of a once-in-a-lifetime shared dream, Brown has created an unforgettable portrait of an era, a celebration of a remarkable achievement, and a chronicle of one extraordinary young man’s personal quest.

Download or read book Fast Track to Cruising written by Steve Colgate and published by McGraw Hill Professional. This book was released on 2004-12-10 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how to handle a cruising sailboat in as little as seven days—even if you’ve never sailed before! Who says you have to be an experienced daysailor before you can think about cruising? Steve and Doris Colgate know that most of us don’t have that kind of time. At the Offshore Sailing School, the Colgates have helped more than 100,000 adults—three-quarters of whom started as beginning sailors or complete newcomers--take the helm of a midsize cruising sailboat. Now Fast Track to Cruising offers these proven instructional methods to all aspiring sailors with big dreams and little time. This is the very first guide that teaches sailing and cruising together, taking you from your first sail to independent cruising in one leap. You can make that leap in as little as seven days—as in the Colgates’ “Fast Track to Cruising” course—or you can get there at a more leisurely pace. Either way, no other book will take you from your first tacking or docking maneuver to a mastery of navigation and diesel engines as efficiently as this one. "America's most experienced sailing instructors present a thorough and easy to understand look at cruising. Leisure time is precious. Safety is paramount. The Colgates will help you maximize your time on the water."--Gary Jobson, ESPN's lead sailing analyst and editor at large for Cruising World and Sailing World “Doris and Steve Colgate understand that people want to reach their sailing goals as quickly as possible and they've built the excellent Fast Track program to accomplish it.”--Bernadette Bernon, former editorial director of Cruising World magazine "Together Steve and Doris Colgate have been teaching beginners to sail for over half a century. In Fast Track to Cruising they have included every concept and procedure you need to get yourself from a want-to-be sailor to one who is knowledgeable and competent to take the helm--with confidence and a smile."--Charles Mason, Executive Editor, SAIL magazine

Download or read book Barret Bonden's Thoughts on Boating Safely written by Thomas E Dawson and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-25 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author, Thomas E. Dawson, is back again with his second book about boating safely. In his first book, Safe Boating in Southwest Florida: Cape Coral Edition: Your Guide to the Many Channels on Our Waterways, Dawson wrote about what boaters can expect to find on the waterways in and around Lee County, Florida. This volume contains some of the articles Dawson wrote for the local Lee County newspapers to promote boating safely. Lee County, on the Gulf Coast of Florida, attracts retirees, vacationers and seasonal residents, due to the weather and the access to the Gulf of Mexico. Boaters of all types can enjoy hundreds of miles of waterway without ever venturing out into the Gulf of Mexico. Due to the many visitors and the number of boaters who have never taken a basic boating education course, Lee County also sees too many boating accidents each year. The pieces included in this volume are presented to help all boaters be reminded of things they may have forgotten or overlooked. For some readers, these pieces may present new ideas or tips from which they can benefit. For all readers, it is hoped that these short essays will inspire them to dig a little deeper and learn a little more. Perhaps they will encourage the reader to take a basic boating class-such as America's Boating Course or one of the other boating courses offered by America's Boating Club or the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary-so that they can begin their journey to becoming a Prudent Mariner.
