Topics are broken down into photo sequences, boxes, flowcharts, hints and tips, and cover:

– assembling the right boat and gear
– practising and tuning (straight line, tacking, gybing, rounding marks, doing penalties)
– starting (planning, set-up of rig and foils)
– race strategy (beating, reaching, running)
– tactics against the opposition
– crewing skills (trim, weight)
– tides and currents (what affects the flow, using them to your advantage)
– wind (wind shadows, wind bends, forecasts)
– spinnakers (symmetric, asymmetric, hoist, gybe, drop)
– rules (start, beat, reach, run)
A final section on troubleshooting enables readers to rate their performance and identify areas for improvement, handily linking back to those pages in the book.
