Classic Guide to Building Punts and Canoes - Including Construction Your Own Canvas Canoes and Building a Sailing Boat Synopsis

This book is a collection of vintage articles about designing and building punts and canoes. With detailed diagrams and a wealth of useful tips, these timeless articles will be of considerable utility to those with an interest in making their own small boats and is not to be missed by collectors of classic literature of this ilk. Contents include: "e;Building Punts and Canoes"e;, "e;A 12-ft. Flat-Bottomed Boat"e;, "e;Lining-in or Layering-off"e;, "e;Starting the Building"e;, "e;The Knees"e;, "e;Side Planks"e;, "e;Deck"e;, "e;Chafing Battens"e;, "e;Finishing"e;, "e;A Thames Punt"e;, "e;A Knockabout Canadian-Type Canoe"e;, "e;A 12-ft. Canvas Canoe"e;, "e;A Fixing Keel Frame on the Stocks"e;, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on building boats.
