Another fine selection of boat porn! This is a great resource for boat design enthusiasts and those who dream of the next boat building project (just as soon as I finish my current one). The selection of vessels is wide and includes power, paddle, stroke and sail. This one makes a fine companion to the other two editions published by Wooden Boat.

Unfortunately, with the advent of the interweb / internet, this book is rather obsolete, I would have returned it but would rather keep it than pay the postage back.
Substantially more information is available on even the worst boat building web site.
Even if you're just trying to fill your shelves with books, I'd still find a better book or print out some web pages instead, you'd be better off.

If there's nothing so worth doing as messing about on boats, looking at a book of study plans surely comes in near the top. WoodenBoats has compiled a(nother) set of intriguing drawings and lines which have me turning page after page, thinking about the possibilities for building my own boat. I may never actually build any of the boats shown in this book, but I've gotten tremendous enjoyment -- and learned a great deal about the various types of boat hulls, rigs and construction -- while perusing the pages. The only problem is that forty boats isn't enough
