Saving Sailing - The Story of Choices, Families, Time Commitments, and How We Can Create a Better Future
Why isn't sailing the most irresistible pastime in the world?Participation in sailing in the United States has declined by about 40% in the last decade. Trying to make sense of that resulted in this book, a fast-moving intellectual voyage that takes readers to some unexpected stops along the way but ends in a place that is familiar and intuitively right.Nick Hayes guides us to a conclusion that floats on a buoyant platform of instantly recognizable common sense and leaves us wanting to go sailing with friends . . . right now. --Bill Schanen, Editor & Publisher,Sailing Magazine
