Here's just a glimpse of what's inside this complete overview of wooden boatbuilding: How rowing, sailing, paddling, and powerboat designs perform, and how they compare in cost, time, and necessary skills for building How wooden boats are built, including the pros and cons of carvel, lapstrake, dory lap, stitch and glue, strip plank, and other methods How to choose the best boat and building method for your next project How to loft a hull, steam bend frames, scarf a joint, cut a rabbet, laminate stems, and spile planks How to take the lines off an old classic whose plans have been lost How to make oars, spars, coamings, knees, gaff jaws, cleats, and more Greg Rössel writes with warmth, wit, and an engaging style. The Boatbuilder's Apprentice is a must guide for anyone planning or even dreaming about building a wooden boat. "Greg Rössel is a Renaissance man. While there are many talented boatbuilders in the world, only a handful are also good teachers. Even fewer can write or illustrate effectively. Yet this author is highly skilled in each of these areas. . . . The Boatbuilder's Apprentice is a successful blend of technique and wisdom, and is, I believe, destined to become a classic."-Karen Wales, WoodenBoat Review, Learn the Ins and Outs of Building Lapstrake, Carvel, Stitch-and-Glue, Strip-Planked, and Other Wooden Boats Whether you are contemplating your first-ever boatbuilding project or trying to decide what design you'd like to build next, Greg R ssel can help.

    Book arrived as described and well packaged too. My apologies Dean for not responding by email and thank you for sending this wonderful book. I lived on Vancouver Island in 1978 and just seeing Nanoose Bay on the packet made me smile! Thank you

    The book ordered was sent in a timely fashion and packaged with care. It was backed with cardboard to help prevent damage during shipping. The book it's self is in excellent condition and exceeds expectations. All of this is worthy of a good review but the best part of dealing with tideland books is their business integrity. They honored a price that was a typo (to my benefit) without hesitation. I will be buying from them in the future.

    this book should be your first book on building a wooden boat...if you have already read 2 or 3 other books on the topic you can skp it as it contains very basic, very broad info without too much detail
