They leave the berth, set the sails, helm the boat, navigate, trim the sails, anchor, pick up mooring buoys, enter harbour, moor up & all without the help of any extra crew. So they need to carry out these manoeuvres efficiently & effectively, with as little physical effort as possible. Stress-free Sailing is the answer to single or short-handed crews` prayers
