Free Sample Issue for Kayakers

Your kayak would look good aboard or tied next to a sailboat. The two sports are in perfect harmony: combining kayak exploration with the comfort and poetry of sailing.

We have put together a packet of information to help paddlers check out the world of sailing. Included you will find:

Kayakers Base CampSailing basics

A short primer on what you need to know to sail. It’s not that hard and we use the English language in our explanations. We also introduce you to a handful of sailing terms you'll find useful. 

Knots
There are lots of knots that would be handy to know but a working knowledge of just a few will meet most of your needs. We will show you how to tie them and include a length of rope with which to practice.

A list of websites
These sites will give you more information as well as help you find books, videos, and other usefull resources, if you wish to learn more.

A magazine
Last, but not least in our opinion, is a free (really free) copy of our magazine, Good Old Boat, “the sailing magazine for the rest of us.”

Please complete the information below so we can send the packet to you. No obligation. We just hope you'll discoverthe same enjoyment that we have in sailing.
