SAILING JUST FOR FUN
`Sailing Just of Fun. High Adventures on a small budget` has sold well over 4000 copies.
“Surprisingly, although he has written many an article for many magazines (including this one) Charles Stock has until now produced no book. Too busy sailing, one supposes. The omission is remedied with Sailing Just For Fun, a compendium of sound – if sometimes unconventional – common-sense advice, penetrating insights and travelogues of small boat cruising at its most intimate”
