Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - verry intresting The book came to me in exelent shape. I found it to be intresting and informative. Rating: - nautical textbook Great book at a great price. Every novice and experienced builders can get a lot out of this book. Rating: - An Oldie, but a Goodie Orig published in 1904 and re-issued in '27, '35, '38 and 2001. Heavy on math, (lots of formulas) excellent drawings and charts. Includes some on power yachts, including hydroplanes. The principles remain the same. Excellent reference, but probably a little much for the true beginner. Rating: - Yacht Hydrodynamics 101 A proven book on Yacht Hydrodynamics, often out of Print but relatively recently available again. Note that emphasis is on Design, which in this case refers to the particulars of Hydrodynamics of Yachts and not as some might assume to mechanical engineering or even interior decorating. Rating: - A Classic.. This is the classic book on yacht design. The "Manual of Calculations" at the back of the book is worth the cost of the entire book. More detailed/scientific than most other books on the topic of Yacht Design. Tends to focus a bit to much on rules-based-sail racing (from my persepctive) but otherwise excellent- a must have if you are planning to design anything that floats! see more		Boat Design.Net Design Award Top Rated Sites Most Popular Sites What's New Boat Plans Books Designers Boatbuilders Materials Powerboats Catamarans Propulsion Sailboats Multihulls Software Resources Random Site My Links Gallery Forums Search
