Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Canoeing, Sailing and Motor Boating: Practical Boat Building and Handling
It is believed that the book will have wide ap peal, not only to the boy making his first ventures on blue water and to the youth learning to become an able yacht sman, but to the man who would still keep to his love for adventures a?oat, yet whose pocketbook may prevent him from becoming a yachtowner in the accepted meaning of the term. To the Poor Man, therefore, let this volume be dedicated. May its perusal steer him clear of ex pensive pitfalls, show him the way to enjoy his days a?oat, and keep alive in him that love of the sea which lies at the root of this nation's sea power.
