Whether she is to be rowed or sailed independently, or will be the
tender to a larger vessel, nothing feels or looks quite like a
traditional clinker-built dinghy, 'done right'. And those two words
are the key to a boat which will truly grace the water, charm all
who use or see her, and maintain her value. In Details of Dinghy
Building Will Stirling painstakingly describes and illustrates the
many arcane yet vital tasks which can daunt the beginning
boatbuilder. Will has been building clinker dinghies professionally
for many years and has made, and learned how to avoid, all the
mistakes which lie in wait for the unwary. Take advantage of his
experience, and some 'tricks of the trade', and draw inspiration
from the many mouthwatering photographs of finished boats which
punctuate the book. If you're building a boat, this textual guide
and photographic reference will pay for itself many times over in
the time, frustration and embarrassment it will save you. If you're
not, you'll find it a fascinating verbal and visual window into a
time-honoured traditional craft.
