Riassunto

The Chinese, or junk, rig is particularly suitable for small boats and for shorthanded or family sailing in open water and unpredictable weather, being extremely seaworthy and easy to handle. In this volume, the authors have synthesized 25 years of research and development of this style of rig, as adapted to Western craft. The book examines the rig itself, its design, the aerodynamic theory behind junk rigs and how best to sail them. It is written equally for the amateur owner and the professional designer who wishes to study the rig in detail, understand the principles that underlie it and discover how to design a junk rig for any type of boat.
