"Doris Colgate knows what women want. Well-known as a sailing role model and a confident yet gentle teacher, she writes with clarity on even the most complex sailing concepts, as well as answering often-asked questions on the safety, comfort, and social sides of sailing. Sailing: A Woman's Guide pulls it all together for the beginning sailor. Finally, an excellent book for women that both teaches and motivates. Bravo, Doris. You've opened up the sport." --Bernadette Peters, editorial director, Cruising World

"It took a person with her fingers on the pulse of women aspiring to sail to write this book, and that person is clearly Doris Colgate.

Learn how to handle a cruising sailboat in as little as seven days—even if you’ve never sailed before!

Who says you have to be an experienced daysailor before you can think about cruising? Steve and Doris Colgate know that most of us don’t have that kind of time. At the Offshore Sailing School, the Colgates have helped more than 100,000 adults—three-quarters of whom started as beginning sailors or complete newcomers--take the helm of a midsize cruising sailboat. Now Fast Track to Cruising offers these proven instructional methods to all aspiring sailors with big dreams and little time.

This is the very first guide that teaches sailing and cruising together, taking you from your first sail to independent cruising in one leap. You can make that leap in as little as seven days—as in the Colgates’ “Fast Track to Cruising” course—or you can get there at a more leisurely pace. Either way, no other book will take you from your first tacking or docking maneuver to a mastery of navigation and diesel engines as efficiently as this one.

"America's most experienced sailing instructors present a thorough and easy to understand look at cruising. Leisure time is precious. Safety is paramount. The Colgates will help you maximize your time on the water."--Gary Jobson, ESPN's lead sailing analyst and editor at large for Cruising World and Sailing World

“Doris and Steve Colgate understand that people want to reach their sailing goals as quickly as possible and they've built the excellent Fast Track program to accomplish it.”--Bernadette Bernon, former editorial director of Cruising World magazine

"Together Steve and Doris Colgate have been teaching beginners to sail for over half a century. In Fast Track to Cruising they have included every concept and procedure you need to get yourself from a want-to-be sailor to one who is knowledgeable and competent to take the helm--with confidence and a smile."--Charles Mason, Executive Editor, SAIL magazine.

Introduction from the Author

Forget ColgateÂ’s firm position among top-tier liberal arts universities Disregard the sheer volume of league titles our Division I sports teams have reaped in past years. Ignore our picturesque campus, our successful alumni, and the pair of swans that live in our on-campus lake. Forget all of these things, because the image of Colgate as a university will never replace the image of Colgate as a brand of toothpaste. Why even bother trying?

All jokes aside, we believe Colgate is the perfect balance of a small liberal arts college boasting a small student-to-teacher ratio and a large university, complete with state-of-the-art resources and renowned faculty. Its traditions fortify the institution and strengthen the spirit that is Colgate. As Colgate moves closer to receiving its due recognition, placing it among great institutions such as those in the Ivy League, it remains loyal to what made it so great in the first place—its small, tight-knit community of outstanding students and faculty, and its dedication to academic excellence.

Competition for admission into Colgate increases every year. Each incoming class, according to the statistics, outshines the class preceding it. This indicates the UniversityÂ’s growing popularity among ambitious students looking for a reputable institution comparable to an Ivy League education without the major university setting. This university is on the verge of even greater praise and acclaim.

We jumped at the chance to let the world know what an amazing institution Colgate University is. We fell in love with it, and hope that this book will give others the opportunity to do so, as well. We love Colgate University, despite all dentistry jokes. We love Colgate for the amazing experiences we have had our first two years, and hopefully in the years to come. We love Colgate for its cold winters that make us appreciate every ray of sunshine, for its late-night, moonlit walks home from downtown, and for every time we catch our breath upon arriving to campus, as if seeing the incredible brillance of campus the way we did when we moved in as freshmen.
