When anchoring,
use a short length
of chain
next
to the anchor,
and
plenty of anchor line (seven (7) times
the water depth to be really secure).
When tying up next to
a dock or boat use fenders
(bumpers) so you keep your
hull looking like new.

When sailing in heavy air, or if you
can't swim, wear a comfortable
life
vest. These vests are soft, flexible,
and comfortable
enough to wear all
the time with no inconvenience
at all.
Don't leave your sails up when you
are not sailing-ten
minutes of luffing
in heavy air will age them more than
ten hours of sailing!
Finally-ENJOY
YOUR
WINDROSE
Use it. Let it introduce you to sailing,
the greatest sport in the world.
