I have others if you are looking for something else drop me a PM.

 

I am looking for the following books. Prefer hardcover books but will consider softcover.

 

"Fore & Aft Rig in America" by E. P. Morris

 

"Rigging of Ships in the Days of the Spritsail Topmast" by R. C. Anderson

 

"Elements and Practice of Naval Architecture" by David Steel or the Knowles edition of the same book.

 

Books on the design and construction of small craft (~<100' LOA) that include plans and detailed descriptions of the boats.

 

Books on modeling small craft.

 

Model kits of small craft including fishing boat, utilities, racing craft and other work boats.  I have built all the Midwest apprentice series but would be interested in their America's Cup models and other small craft.
