Traditional Sailing Skills for Classic Boats

In Hand, Reef & Steer - winner of the Best Book of the Sea Award - Tom explains the different sailing characteristics of classic craft and shares his grasp of the special skills requires to handle them. He describes how to handle heavy loads using tackles rather than winches and reveals the mysteries of making the boat work for you rather than fighting with her gear. He shares step by step advice on setting up the rig; sail handling skills (hoisting, setting and reefing) heavy and light air sailing; manoeuvring a long-keel boat; losing way; scandalising and steering with sails, topsails, watersails, single-luff spinnakers and fisherman staysails; and much, much more.

Hand, Reef & Steer, with its wonderful watercolour drawings and atmospheric photos, will delight all who love the unique character and grace of classic craft.

Teak Cleaner & Brightener Combo Pack

Teak Cleaner & Brightener Combo Pack

£17.95 / €26.57

Keeping teak clean since 1973

These great products leave the deck looking like ‘new’. Applying the two products contained in each bottle one after the other washes away the grey colour that has accumulated in the wood only to rediscover the splendid golden colour that new or just sanded teak possesses. All in a few minutes and without removing millimetres of precious wood from the deck, as occurs during sanding. Neither of these two liquids is aggressive or caustic and therefore does not damage rubber, paint or stainless steel fittings. An incredible way of saving time and effort, and even if Teak Wonder Brightener does not always have to be applied, using it on teak just washed with Teak Wonder Cleaner when it is rather dark, is a miraculous sight: 'it immediately acquires that just sanded colours’ Practical Sailor
