Simple Boat-Building - Rowing Flattie, V-Bottom Sailing Dinghy, Moulded Pram, Hull for Outboard
About this book
This vintage book is a complete and beginner-friendly guide to building boats, with information on the design and construction of a rowing "flattie", a V-bottomed sailing dinghy, a moulded pram, and more. It was designed for those looking to build a boat on a budget and without special tools, and was written by an amateur with actual experience building twelve boats. Contents include: "Hints on Designing", "Sequence and Method in Building", "How to Build a Dinghy Flattie", "Finishing Details", "How to Build a V-Quartered Sailing Dinghy", "How to Build a Moulded Pram Dinghy", "How to Build an Outboard Run-About", and "How to Build a Dagger-Trunk". Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on boat building.
