This has to be one of the best books on yachts I've ever read. Actually no, not just on yachts or sailing but something more interesting. Adventure!
The book, although at a glance slightly wordy, is very well thought through, with practical advice, (we got our Taylors Paraffin cooker going after read their cooking session). This great book covers everything from, designing and building a yacht from scratch through to useful advice on anchoring, sailing, rigging and simply surviving a day to day life of adventure.
I'd happily recomend this book to anyone, we have a copy for home and to keep onboard shoestring. It is available from Amazon.com / .co.uk but also often from many secondhand book sellers. My first copy came from Any Amount of Books, in Charring Cross road London, and cost a whole £1.50.
A new copy currently costs £9.86 on Amazon.co.uk (click here for link)
