Testimonies:
“It would make a great welcome-on-board gift for skippers to give to new crew. It teaches them terminology and skills, but also takes a no-nonsense approach to extremely important matters – like crew asking if a skipper would like them to contribute to the boat’s kitty. Very handy for nautical novices.” Sailing Today
“It’s small, concise and surprisingly good at packing useful information into a tiny space. Basil has had considerable practice at writing simply and clearly to help the novice understand sailing and he does it very well…” Yachting Monthly
“These slimline, flip-over ‘learn-to-sail’ type books are priceless in my view; and this second edition of ‘New Crew’s Companion’ tops the bargain list once more… all the essentials are there for the new crew to make their lives easier aboard. A working knowledge of the text and illustrations herein are things which would make a ‘newbie’ welcome onboard any yacht.” Sailing Magazine
