Sailor's Sketchbook

Summary: A wonderful book of projects and ideas for sailboats
Review: This book is a lot of fun. It contains many projects for improving sailboats and life aboard them, all drawn and described in a quaint "American Boys Handybook" style. As Bingham says, he did not expect people to copy his projects exactly, but rather to get ideas from reading about them and design their own projects. Either way, this book is a lot of fun.

Summary: A fun book for Kids and Adults...
Review: You know I've got to say I've enjoyed this book greatly. Not so much for myself as for my three year old son. He and I spend many an hour looking through the different sketches trying to find the mouse and the cat that are in many of the pictures in this book. We call it the mouse and cat book.

Oh yeah and the information in the book is great for any boat owner. He goes over lots of little things you can do to take your boat from just a boat to a yacht no matter what the size.

Anyway, just want to say that while there may be many books with more details or more information, there aren't many that are as much fun with useful information to boot.

Good reading and good sailing.
