A groundbreaking, technical analysis of yacht design, linked to the theory and testing of how a sailing yacht behaves underway. It is cutting edge - the author (a world expert in the field) has drawn his conclusions from years of research, analytical testing in wind tunnels and tanks, and his results represent the state of the art in performance prediction which underlies all modern yacht design.

State of the art and with a revolutionary modern approach, "Aero-hydrodynamics and the Performance of Sailing Yachts" provides a systematic and completely up to date analysis, complete with colour photographs and diagrams throughout. An essential, and long awaited, work for all professional yacht designers, racing sailors and students of yacht design.

Alfred Mylne - the Leading Yacht Designer (Volume 1) - 1896-1920

Beautiful boats last a long time, but ugly ones die young. That is one reason why there are so many Alfred Mylne designed yachts still sailing, even though some of them are well over 100 years old.
It was in 1896 that Alfred Mylne, at the age of twenty-four, set up his yacht design office in Glasgow and the company is now one of the oldest British yacht design firms still in existence.
Boat design features which are widely believed to be quite new are found in early Mylne designs and between 1896 and 1920 Mylne designed several beautiful, race-winning yachts. Alfred Mylne yachts still turn heads today, even in San Tropez or Antigua.

In this book, Ian Nicolson uses original plans from the archives of Alfred Mylne to demonstrate the beauty of the earliest Mylne yacht designs and to tell the story of Alfred Mylne the man.

Cruising Yachts : Design and Performance

Dr Thomas Harrison Butler was a skilled, yet amateur, designer responsible for some hundreds of classic English cruising yachts which still grace our seas. "Cruising Yachts", his design manifesto, first appeared in 1945 - the year of his death - and last appeared in print in 1995.

This long overdue Fifth Edition has been produced in collaboration with the Harrison Butler Association, and is a complete re-setting of the original text, drawings and mono photographs, documenting in detail HB's approach to the design and equipping of a yacht, providing an annotated catalogue of notable designs, and including a biographical portrait by HB's daughter, the late Joan Jardine-Brown.

New for this edition are a modern gallery of colour photographs of HB yachts, and a thoughtful and illuminating Foreword by the late Ed Burnett, who was our foremost designer of modern yachts in the classic English idiom.

Lofting is an essential stage in the transition between designing and building a boat in order to turn the design plans into boat lines plans to measure off and build the full-size boat. Its a tricky art, but this book shows exactly how it is done in clear, step-by-step diagrammatic stages.

Aimed specifically at the amateur DIY builders and restorers, it will enable anyone to build a boat of any size, whether power or sail. The author has been teaching lofting to boatbuilding students for over 10 years, and has found that the key to understanding is visualisation - hence the plethora of step-by-step diagrams in this book to assist the reader to grasp the concepts.

The Elements of Boat Strength - For Builders, Designers and Owners

Acclaimed author and naval architect Dave Gerr created this unique system of easy-to-use scantling rules and rules-of-thumb for calculating the necessary dimensions, or scantlings, of hulls, decks, and other boat parts, whether built of fiberglass, wood, wood-epoxy composite, steel, or aluminum.

In addition to the rules themselves, 'The Elements of Boat Strength' offers their context: an in-depth, plain-English discussion of boatbuilding materials, methods, and practices that will guide you through all aspects of boat construction.

Now you can avoid wading through dense technical engineering manuals or tackling advanced mathematics. This guide has all the formulas, tables, illustrations, and charts you need to judge how heavy each piece of your boat should be in order to last and be safe.
With this book, an inexpensive scientific calculator, and a pad of paper, you'll be able to design and specify all the components necessary to build a sound, long-lasting, rugged vessel.

Anatomie du Voilier

Both encyclopedic and easy to consult, "Anatomy of the sailboat" concentrates a great wealth of information for both the enthusiast and the neophyte. Thanks to its meticulous exploration of all the parts of a sailboat, it enters the depths of a knowledge that is both traditional and very contemporary.
The book is richly illustrated with superb photographs, sometimes supplemented by diagrams, which make each page a new pleasure of discovery: the hull and the deck; the rigging; the superstructures; the fittings and equipment; the annexes; the fittings; the mechanics and electronics.

Thus, all the components of today's sailboat, from the keel to the masthead, including portholes and compasses, are reviewed with an explanation of their origins and developments, without forgetting their materials of yesterday and today. Many historical anecdotes make reading as enriching as entertaining.
"Anatomy of the Sailboat" successfully combines knowledge and pleasure, enough to satisfy the curiosity of all boat lovers, whether they sail or dream of it at the sight of the magnificent yachts seen in a port.
