Building Small Boats by Greg Rossel

For years Greg has been teaching teaching lofting, skiff building, and

the "Fundamentals of Boatbuilding". at the WoodenBoat School. Greg's

talent for relaying this experience into the written word has resulted

in a text with a straight-forward friendly approach, including helpful

drawings and photographs. The combination will drive-home the lessons.

Building Small Boats is the ideal book for the construction of boats

under 25 feet in length. It's perfect for folks looking to have some of

the mysteries of the building process peeled away, or just boning-up on a

good technique or two. This book has fast become a best-seller. A

classic in the making.

Lakes and rivers, ponds and coastal waters are bound to see more great

boats plying their waters because of this book. This the classic text on

carvel and traditional lapstrake boatbuilding.

No glue-lap-ply, strip, or cold-molding in this book. Just

straight-forward traditional building for the under 25-footer crowd.

Building Small Boats is heavily illustrated with Greg's drawings, and

written with the primary goal of making the subject at hand easily

understood.
