FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

31 May 2008

The author Jerry N. Selness, MS Naval Architect appeared in BEA2008 Booth 732 On Friday, 30 May 2008 to answer questions about the content of and course of his book: Primitive Benchmark: A Short Treatise on a General Theory of Sailing with the Limits of Sailboat Speed. He was there to pass out bookmarks and to answer questions such as: why some first time readers keep this book by their bedside? how to predict with the general theory the speed of any species of sailing craft? Actual questions asked were: why did you decide to write a book? are you a sailor, you look like one? maybe my husband will like it, he is a sailor.

The book continues on display in the Science section of the PMA booth 727 at the BEA2008 Los Angeles California through Sunday 1 June 2008.
