Known internationally as "the Bible of canoe building,"
Canoecraft is back, and it's bigger and better than ever. The
best-selling how-to guide has been completely revised and expanded,
and master canoe builder Ted Moores again infuses the pages with
the experience and wisdom acquired over almost three decades. His
step-by-step instructions, generously illustrated with new
photographs and diagrams and incorporated into an accessible fresh
design, will allow even the beginner to create a reasonably priced
classic. North America's leading builder of woodstrip/epoxy canoes,
Moores is a longtime teacher of wooden-boat construction as well.
With students who have ranged in age from 11 to 87, Moores has
discovered that all have been motivated by the same dream: to build
something beautiful and functional.
Canoecraft is the road map to that dream. In it, Moores offers
comprehensive instructions for the first-time builder and, with the
second-time builder in mind, includes a larger variety of canoe
plans -- five of which are brand-new. In this edition, each plan is
presented as a traditional table of offsets. Moores has also added
a series of builder's tips and new techniques and an entire chapter
on carving a paddle, the perfect accompaniment to your handcrafted
canoe. His message is straightforward: When good materials are used
and simple steps performed with care, professional results are sure
to follow.
Whether your goal is to build a general-purpose recreational
canoe, an efficient modern tripping canoe or a full-decked
fast-cruising canoe with walnut veneer, Canoecraft can help you
make it happen.

A marine engineer will need to have a broad background of knowledge
within several aspects of marine design and operations. These
aspects relate to the design of facilities for offshore
applications and evaluation of operational conditions for marine
installation and modification/maintenance works. Such needs arise
in the marine industries, in the offshore oil and gas industry as
well as in the offshore renewable industry.Developed from knowledge
gained throughout the author's engineering career, this book covers
several of the themes where engineers need knowledge and also
serves as a teaser for those who will go into more depth on the
different thematic aspects discussed. Details of qualitative risk
analysis, which is considered an excellent tool to identify risks
in marine operations, are also included.The book is the author's
attempt to develop a text for those in marine engineering science
who like a practical and solid mathematical approach to marine
engineering.It is the intention that the book can serve as an
introductory textbook for master degree courses in marine sciences
and be of inspiration for teachers who will extend the course into
specialisation courses on stability of vessels, higher order wave
analysis, nonlinear motions of vessels, arctic offshore
engineering, etc. The book could also serve as a handbook for PhD
students and researchers who need a handy introduction to solving
marine technology related problems.
