This is the unique new book that's garnered national acclaim with its information crucial for all sailors. Ready to Sail was written by Captain Ed Mapes, translating his experience in offshore deliveries into a well written, highly informative volume.
Ready to Sail details the extensive, systemmatic inspection procedure developed by Ed in use by delivery captains and offshore passage makers in their preparations for sea. Very comprehensive checklists are included for all to use in their own inspections.
Ready to Sail goes on to point out numerous defects found on vessels, and details the procedures used in their repair.
The book also describes gear necessary for safe, secure voyaging, along with chapters devoted to preparation of the boat and the crew to ensure a thorough approach to readiness.
