Interesting and Informative
Gives you a good idea of what to try and what not to try in heavy weather. Interesting stories of actual events with analysis of the results with suggestions for other tactics that may have been employed in the situation.

This is one of those books you need when you are out there with the elements. Learn how to handle yourself and the boat and survive a storm...
