The Gougeon Brothers on Boat Construction

Decades of experience building with wood and epoxy are compiled in this book's 5th edition, completed in 2005. New and updated material is combined with proven technology in a user friendly, revised layout.
Extensive chapters on hardware bonding, construction methods, safety and tools are supported with the aid of hundreds of detailed illustrations and photographs.

Written from the perspective of looking over the shoulder of a boatbuilder at work, rather than some theoretical discussion of how a project should go under ideal circumstances, the intricacies of how to deal with "What do I do now?" situations are covered in detail.
