[quote=Dogboy]Better to just familiarize yourself with the basic general rules - starboard vs. port, clear ahead vs. clear astern, etc. and then go out and start racing. Do a regatta, review the rule book, discuss with other sailors, repeat.
There are a lot of nuances to the rules that you are not likely to appreciate until you actually get out there and start racing.
