Based on 25 years of research and Olympic coaching, High Performance Sailing reinvents the strategies of sailboat racing. It presents revolutionary explanations of wind prediction and boat design, a fundamental rethinking of how to sail a boat fast—literally faster than the wind. Bethwaite's theories boosted the average speed of the highest-performance sailboats from two-thirds the windspeed to windspeed or faster. Bethwaite is Australia’s most successful Olympic coach, and his family includes three Olympic sailing champions and three world champions.
This book will have a revolutionary impact on racing sailboats and the way they are sailed.
