new plywood boats

Try your hand at a taped-seam kayak, a glued-lap clinker Melonseed, a folding plywood trimaran, a solid fiberglass hull built without a mold. Learn about hollow plywood spars, hardware without welding and making a new clinker cedar hull for a 60-year-old runabout. The building of boats is ever new with techniques and materials constantly being developed. This book is for all those interested in the challenge and satisfaction of designing and building boats with marine plywood as well as a variety of other materials. The book discusses design as well as construction and is packed with photographs and plans; six of them are complete plans for everything from a nine-foot tender to a 30-foot trailerable diesel cruiser.
