Iain Oughtred's book, "Clinker Plywood Boatbuilding Manual" is full of helpful hints and pictures explaining the solutions for many problems. The topics covered would be widely applicable in all manner of boatbuilding techniques. The solutions he offers are clear, succinct, and well illustrated.
I can heartily recommend this volume to anyone interested in building a wooden boat.

Excellent instructional book. Yes - it is specific to the author's designs - but who cares. Great pictures and diagrams. Excellent plain language text on a somewhat complicated subject. Read it and you feel you have built a Ness Yawl with the author by your side. Great confidence builder. Buy this book!

This is just the manual I was looking for! Plenty of pictures and details, simple and clear, I found the inspiration I need.
Let's go building!

I found this book to be an excellent resource. Not only does it go through the complete process of building a clinker ply boat, but it also takes the time to address different methods for accomplishing various steps. For example, he goes over several ways of spiling the planks and makes recommendations in a reasonably unbiased manner (none of the "this is the way I do it so don't bother trying anything else"). I'd highly recommend reading this book if you are building or are interested in building a clinker ply boat, whether or not it is one of the author's designs. I'm currently building a design by another designer and this book is still throughly useful.
This book also covers basically any type of clinker ply boat including prams, flat bottomed dories, round bilged dinghies, and even has the occasional reference to larger (20' +) boats.

This book is a great cross reference to the Hill and Rossel books. Oughred relies on his photographs to convey the boat construction message and the result is a clear instruction manual. Boatbuilding can be confusing to the uninitiated, and Oughred's approach supplements the more detailed written accounts offered in "How to Build Glued-Lapstrake Wooden Boats" by Brooks and Hill and "Building Small Boats" by Rossel in a way that complements these other fine books.
