YACHT special edition for beginners: Basic know-how for the start of your sailing adventure

Sailing is booming! Not least because of the coronavirus pandemic, more and more people want to spend their free time or even their next holiday on the water. And many people still have a sailing licence somewhere in their drawer that they obtained a long time ago. So what could be more obvious thanto buy a boat and set sail!

But wait, how did that work again? And anyway, where do I get a boat and what should I look out for when buying and equipping one? What is the right sailing area for me? What do I need to consider when choosing a mooring? And where can I go on a charter trip to begin with?

All these and countless other questions are answered in our newYACHT special edition for beginners the answers. It is now available as PDF for download in the Delius Klasing Verlag online shop available. YACHT subscribers can download the file free of charge, for non-subscribers the special is available as a purchase PDF at a price of 5.95 euros.
