Customs and Courtesies
This new THIRD EDITION is a 480-page book that expands and updates everything found in the prior editions, and includes new special chapters on boating activities, how to design a flag, and how to run a meeting. It includes sample scripts – with diagrams – for every public and private yacht club ceremony. With this book in hand, every yacht club officer always knows where to stand and what to say. PLUS this new THIRD EDITION is your key to a worldwide network of clubs. It contains an updated Stars Register of Clubs & Flags, with more than 800 full-color burgees, and information – including many websites and Email addresses – of over 2,000 yacht clubs in the United States and around the world. Written by a practicing lawyer, this newly-revised, expanded 480-page, photo- packed second edition covers everything from the history of yachting to the modern-day problem of protecting yourself and your club from the very real danger of lawsuits. It is a valuable manual for yacht club officers, providing adaptable scripts for ceremonies such as Change of Watch and memorial services. The book explains the history of many yachting customs like saluting the quarterdeck and making a toast, and describes how to carry on such traditions in the twenty-first century. Yachting Customs and Courtesies is the only book of its kind in the New York Yacht Club library. It should be on your shelf as well. Order your copy today.
