More About This Book

Overview

The insights and wisdom of the late, great

boat designer and builder

Renowned as one of the last and best of the old-time

boatbuilders, Captain R. D.“Pete” Culler

provided a guiding light for the wooden boat revival in

the 1970s. His designs are classic melds of elegance

and utility; his workmanship was akin to artistry; and

his teaching and writing a blend of clarity, good sense,

insight, and humor. This book brings together the complete

texts of Culler’s classic works Boats, Oars, and

Rowing and Skiffs & Schooners, along with articles from

The Mariner’s Catalogs and a selection of his timeless

boat designs.
