This vintage book is a detailed guide to designing, building, and maintaining a yacht, with information on everything from deck planking to installing skylights. Written in clear, plain language and profusely illustrated, "Practical Yacht Construction" is highly recommended for yacht owners, designers, and builders with little previous experience. Contents include: "Lead Keep", "Keel and False Keel", "Stem and Apron", "Stern Post and Deadwood", "Horn Timbers", "Rudder", "Frames and Timbers", "Floors", "Shelf and Clamp Stringers", "Beams", "Carlings", "Knees and Pillars", Bottom Planking", "Deck Planking", "Bulwarks, Main Rail, Knightheads", "Fastenings", "Skylights and Companions", etc. 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.
