Description

For a modest man, Tim Davison has done quite well for himself in the sailing world. He has won National and European championships from the 1970s to 2020s, has skippered his yacht from the Baltic to the Mediterranean and has written over 20 books on sailing. Maintaining that sailing is too important to be taken seriously, he has used the bluffing skills described in this book to help propel his racing boats to the front of the fleet and his cruising boats to the warm waters of the Med - and back. In The Sailor's Bluffing Bible, you will learn how to bluff with the best in the sailing club bar and manoeuvre yourself onto sleek yachts and fast dinghies. Once there, our tips on what to do, what to wear and what to say will come in very handy. You may even be asked back! Whether racing or cruising or on a sailing holiday you will be able to hold your own in conversation, staggering your audience with your sailing knowledge. A perfect book - or gift - for the sailor and would-be sailor, illustrated by nautical cartoonist John Quirk.

About the Author
Tim Davison is a National and European sailing champion with thousands of cruising miles in his wake. He has written numerous sailing books and even founded a nautical publishing company. John Quirk's biography would have been a lot shorter if the German bomb that landed outside the air raid shelter in which he was born, had gone off. He started drawing soon after and left UK at 25 for East Africa, then New York and finally Australia where he lives with his wife and enjoys drawing, writing and messing about in boats.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
