A step by step guide to the basics of sailing. For over 20 years Penny Whiting has been teaching people of all ages to sail. Now she has produced a sailing DVD based on her practical sailing course. It's a step by step guide to allow you to gain the skills and confidence of boat handling so that you may enjoy your sailing even more. With her own special and entertaining form of instruction, Penny takes you through all aspects of sailing aboard her 47' keel boat 'Endless Summer' on Auckland harbour in NZ. The basics you will learn in this video are that it's much easier to learn on a large boat and then apply the techniques to a smaller yacht.
