Drawing upon his more than 60 years' experience as a boatbuilder/designer, Fred Bingham has revamped his classic Practical Yacht Joinery to appeal to a whole new generation of boaters. This new edition of the book Yachting, called an absolute necessity, not only is more attuned to the needs of boaters of the 1990s

Includes:: all-new material on building nautically influenced projects for home or camp
- its price is substantially less than that of its august predecessor. This book is about building things of wood, from a new cup rack to a completely new interior, but it isn't just another project book. Bingham wisely assumes that many people want to be told how to perform neat joinerwork rather than what to build. By starting with a simple task, such as a cleat, deck box, or even a tool box, & then proceeding to more ambitious projects, you develop the skills you need to build practically anything you can envision. Bingham's joinery techniques & handy gimmicks (and they appear on nearly every page of the book) were born of trial & error; he provides realistic alternative procedures for many of the projects, telling how to make them by Method A, Method B, & Method C. As thousands of readers of Practical Yacht Joinery discovered, Bingham's gift for providing simple explanations for complex problems can transform a rank beginner who has never held a hammer into a journeyman boat carpenter, & a journeyman carpenter into a true craftsman.' The woodworking is discussed in such detail that just about anyone, including longtime professionals, is likely to find many useful tricks of the trade. Much more of this & pros will be a dime a dozen'
- The Last Whole Earth Catalog. ' One almost has the feeling that the author is right there, advising & encouraging, showing how to use a tool, helping lay out deck beams, pausing to tell how he did a job on such & such a boat'
- Small Boat Journal. 'A veritable encyclopedia of techniques, tools, gadgets, & gimmicks'
- Dolphin Book Club News. ' Takes over where boatbuilding books leave off'
- National Fisherman. ' Should interest everyone from the casual weekend tinkerer to the sailor who's building his own boat'

- MAP TITLES: the grids shown on our website serve both the civilian & the military 1:50, 000 topographic series. Although the areas covered by maps in both series are identical (apart from some border or coastal sheets), occasionally map titles differ – only one title is shown on the grid, usually the military one. In Galicia, the Basque country & in the Catalan speaking areas the tendency now is to use local place names rather than the often better known Castilian ones. Where possible, both versions are included in our titles. Map titles listed on our website are based on information received by us at the time of publication, but sometimes maps arrive showing a completely different title!
