Wooden Boats to Build & Use |
|
 
The late John Gardner is considered the driving force in the revival of wooden boats. This book is a continuation of the series of books on traditional boats and how to build them. It describes more than a dozen boats that range from a 12' tender to a 37' V-bottom powerboat, as well as garveys, dories, and even a four-oared gig. Building plans and offsets are included.
