Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought a used Compass Classic 14' catboat and wanted to know whatever I could about this class of sailboat so I ended up with five books - some given and some bought. This book is by far the best. It is filled with details about every aspect on catboats - it is not only about competition and racing. Whenever I heard a term I didnt understand i would find it explained in this book. Every time I pick it up I learn something that I didnt know.
