Since its initial publication, How to Design a Boat has become an international bestseller. In this newly updated third edition, John Teale takes the reader step-by-step through the stages of designing both power and sailing boats, pausing along the way to explain the reasons behind the process. Diagrams and working drawings illustrate the text, providing practical demonstrations to aid understanding. Teale also works through the standard calculations employed in boat design work, most of which require only basic arithmetic skills. By the end of the book, even a first time designer's effort will be readily translated into a sensible and workmanlike reality.
