Description
This vintage book is a complete guide to using and maintaining rope on a boat, covering such topics as which rope to use and where, different types of anchors, elasticity, strength, and many other related aspects. Highly accessible and full of useful information, this timeless volume will be of considerable utility to the modern yachtsman, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "Learning the Ropes", "Good Dope on Good Rope--Some Helpful hints for keeping your lines in shape", "Plymouth--The rope you can trust", "Comparative Strength and Weight Data", "Typical Working Elasticity Values", "You Need Good Anchor Lines", "Guide for Ground Tackle", "Angles on Temporary Anchoring", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
