Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An excellent primer to marine carving.
I am very impressed with the content and the overall knowledge with respect to marine carving by the author. His focus on design and project dimensions would make a huge difference on whether your carving looks good or improperly sized. He also covers techniques in wood bending and mounting scrolls and other objects over curved transoms. I can't wait to build my first nameboard for my boat after reading this gem.
