Details about Wooden Boats: The Art of Loving and Caring for Wooden Boats:
Gorgeous color photos accompany personal tales of wooden boat restoration and adventure in this delightful and inspiring volume. There is something beautiful and nostalgic about wooden boats. These exquisite, polished works of art give us a glimpse into the past, a time when things were built to last and everything was crafted by hand. From traditional double-ender sailboats to classic motor cruisers, these magnificent vessels deserve our attention and our utmost respect. As beautiful as these boats may be, they do require a great deal of maintenance and care. In Wooden Boats, Swedish author and boating expert Andreas af Malmborg explores the romance of wooden boats as well as the secrets to their restoration, maintenance, and longevity. The variety of boats ranges from clippers and sloops to motor yachts, racing boats, and more.
