Highly recommended book by Tilo Schnekenburger: Geometric tools for strategy and tactics in regatta sailing. In regatta sailing, course lines, bearings, wind shifts, distances, upwind angles and areas play a crucial role. The strategy and tactics of this sport are largely determined by geometric dimensions. One could even say that geometry represents the blueprint of racing sailing. For successful sailing, it is therefore essential that you understand the geometric relationships on a regatta course and use this knowledge to avoid mistakes and take advantage! See the 3rd revised edition to order here (German language).
With the toolbox, you receive prepared scenarios "ready to run", which you can use to practice as a beginner or expand your sailing capabilities at any time. For beginner you learn basic knowledge, luv up, bear away, tack, jibe or optimise boat speed. Naturally, all other sailors wanting to perfect their knowledge in strategy and tactics in order to be optimally prepared for the coming regattas, can use it as well.
Tactician Tilo Schnekenburger: "Geometric shapes and figures, such as points, lines, and areas, additionally help us to make the right strategic/tactical decisions on the regatta course". In the Tactical Sailing program, 6 basic geometric shapes can be displayed on the regatta field: Circle, rhombus, rectangle, square, triangle, sine line.
