Suitable performance calculations are clearly explained for all the dominant types: Windsurfers, kite surfers, kite foilers, trimaran catamaran, planing monohulls, moths, etc. along with fascinating observations and speculation of the potential for further increase in speed. In addition, the book includes exclusive calculations of the performance in waves for some popular boat types. A selection of the calculations can be downloaded with an access code that comes free with the book. This book should be on any technically minded sailing person's book shelf!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Austin Macauley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/03\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781398406216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 502\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 1.50d","brand":"Malcolm Barnsley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52571130986677,"sku":"9781398406216","price":64.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/performance-calculation-methods-for-high-speed-sailing-craft-9781398406216","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
