Synopsis :

This vintage book is a complete and accessible guide to boat construction, with full instructions for designing and building punts, skiffs, canoes, sailing boats, and more. With detailed working drawings and simple, step-by-step instructions, this volume is ideal for those with little previous experience, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "Introductory-Designing", "Tools and Materials", "Punts", "Clench-Built Skiffs", "The Rob Roy Canoe", "The Sailing Boat", "Canadian Bateau-Canvas Canoe-American Shooting Punt", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing "Practical Boat Building for Amateurs" now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on constructing boats.

Présentation de l'éditeur: This special re-print edition of Neison's book “Canoe and Boat Building” is a historical guide to building canoes, rowboats, skiffs, sailboats and other types of sailing craft. Written in 1900, this classic text provides insight into how to how canoes, rowboats, sailboats and other types of watercraft can be built. This manual is specifically designed for the amateur boat builder. A truly interesting read for those interested in building their own boats, canoes and other watercraft. One of the only books of its kind. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
