Default Seeking best book for Sail trim

I see the download is good for 7 days. What happens after that?

That DVD looks good but I like the $14.99 price here better.

Thanks for the replies. I actually managed to order off of Amazon for 8
dollars, but my wife still wants a book. Several e-mails to me
suggested Sail Power by Wallace Ross, but that appears to out of print
with no recent updates.
Any other good picks?

Large amount of info about basic aerodynamics, sail trim,
tuning, and sail construction. Very readable, too
http://www.amazon.com/Art-Science-Sa...e=UTF8&s=books

The Stuart Walker book is also very good... covers an
incredible amount of info & different techniques... but not
as readable and IMHO is going to be confusing to try &
assimilate into practice.

It stops playing.

I know, I know. I can't believe people actually spend money for a vid
or a song that stops playing after a certain period of time...... but I
guess some do.
