25 Things Every Sailor Needs (and why) (Sailing Gear Book 1)

25 Things Every Sailor Needs (and why) (Sailing Gear Book 1)

One thing Iâ€™ve learned is that the ocean favors the well-prepared sailor. This book details what every sailor should have with them, whether youâ€™re going on a day sail or a circumnavigation. The book also goes into why you need certain gear and what makes some gear better than others.

About the Author

In 2001, 31-year-old Lance Gettler sold everything he owned, bought a sailboat heâ€™d never seen over the internet and went sailing around the world. He didnâ€™t know how to sail and had only been sailing once before, nine years prior.

Lance is now a professional delivery captain, delivering yachts worldwide. From 2005 to 2006, he sailed around the world aboard his 41' ketch with his brother, who didn't know how to sail either. You can read about that in "Ask Me Anything About Sailing Around The World". In 2011 alone, he logged more than 12,000 nm at sea aboard three different sailboats.

To the present day, he lives aboard a sailboat in the Caribbean, working on and repairing sailboats.

Be sure to check out "Nothing Goes To Weather Like a Delivery Crew" the story of a non stop delivery from Auckland to Seattle.
