I haven’t found a good boating book lately, so the World Wide Web makes a great substitute. This article is on Eric Sponberg’s web site. It’s easy to read and makes a complex subject more understandable.

I agree, as I have been searching for printed info about many wooden boats. Few publications out there.

Apparently a new magazine for wooden boat enthusiasts is in the works. I ran into it by mistake while researching my paper.

For those of you who may interested, check it out:
