I'm a professional boatbuilder in Port Townsend ,WA. While there are dozens if not hundreds of boat repair and building books out there, few are as user friendly to the uninitiated as this book is.If you are contemplating purchasing this book to perform maintenance or repair on a wooden boat, buy it! Along with "The Arts of the Sailor" and " The Marlinspike Sailor", this volume belongs on any traditional sailor's shelf.It is one of very,very few books I've encountered that explains repair of a lapstraked (clinker) plank. The overall layout and terminology as applied to parts of the boat is outstanding. The next apprentice that walks through my shop door is getting this book handed to him.
