7. Sailing checklist
Unlike propeller driven boats that you basically point and accelerate, sailboats present some more interesting challenge. Sailing requi-
res constant reaction to water movements and wind directions. These reactions require adjustments of rudder and sails, in order to find
the best possible course. There is no substitute for actual "on-the-water" experience and after your first couple of outings you
may want to ready through this manual again until you get better understanding of the art of sailing. While learning it, it will be a good
idea to pick up on as much sailing terminology as possible. This will make it easier to grasp some aspects.
