Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Compilation of designs and Garden's comments on them.
This beautiful, large-format book showcases dozens of this legendary naval architect's best designs. The vessels include racing and cruising sailboats, some remarkable large motor sailers, high-speed motor boats, able trawlers, and even a 151' steam coastal crusiser. Each chapter focuses on one vessel, with Mr. Garden's unique perspective and extremely humorous comments accompanying the line drawings. Had William Garden not chosen naval architecture, he easily could have been a successful writer or artist. Boat owners will find themselves grinning as they read, and those who hope to custom build their yachts could do no better than listen to the man responsible for so many classic yachts.
