This new edition is the seventh since its creation in 1961. It is entirely in color and completely revised since the last edition.
The objective remains the same: to deliver the means to master a sailboat by learning to deal with the elements, winds, sea, currents and ... life as a crew.
Two new chapters: "sports sailing" and "Homo maritimus", the latter bringing together the regulation of maritime law and the liability at sea of ​​the owner or tenant of a sailboat.
The other chapters have all been enriched, whether by the history of nautical cartography, weather routing or the starry sky or by the evolution of technologies and equipment (GPS and satellite transmissions, for example).
Just over 1300 pages with a glossary and an index at the end of the volume.
Editions du Seuil, 235 mm x 155 mm, 1308 pages.
