RYA new to sailing...?

Question

Hi

I am new to sailing and want to get more experience/be able to handle a boat. I was thinking of doing the RYA day skipper, but wanted to brush up first. Would anyone recommend a book - I have the RYA Day Skipper one but want one that takes you through the course a bit more, rather than an aide memoire. Any ideas? Also - a general consensus as to whether it is worth doing competent crew first?

Thanks
