Desirable and Undesirable Characteristics of the Offshore Sailing Yacht
by John Rousmaniere
Published 17 April 1987
This is the authority on the features and equipment that belong and those that don't belong in a cruising sailboat. Rarely before has a book on sailing drawn upon as much experience and knowledge as these authors provide. Between them, they have been sailing for some 850 years, have covered more than 750,000 miles offshore (the equivalent of 30 circuits of the globe), and have owned 43 cruising sailboats.
