Founder and director of the Boston Sailing Center, Franzel has been teaching men, women, and children how to sail for some thirty-five years using this no-nonsense, direct approach designed to get the beginner quickly from book to boat. He believes that the best and most effective way to learn to sail is to be out on the water.

It's worked for thousands of his students and now it can work for you.
Inside you will find information on: getting started; wind and points of sail; sail trim and balance; tides and currents; anchoring; navigation; spinnaker sailing; heavy-weather sailing and much more.
