Sailing cannot be mastered from reading a book. But you can learn the concepts, and you can certainly get a good start on learning many other areas such as:

Navigation
Preparation
Safety
Maintenance
Pilotage
Seamanship
Sailing Theory
Tides
Weather

Note: We can also come to your location to run a club at your club or community centre.
