He has managed building on the work of March et al, to make a much more readable, and ultimately more useful resource. It's my opinion that this gem should be very near the top of the list for anyone interested in British small craft.Thomas Armstronghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14692570096553186379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6556034524339788728.post-66253200637495801422011-05-04T02:33:23.295-04:002011-05-04T02:33:23.295-04:00I was chatting with the original publisher just th...I was chatting with the original publisher just the other day. You won't be surprised to know that he keeps a smack yacht built in the 1930s just a few yards from where we have our little boat.Gavin Atkinhttp://intheboatshed.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6556034524339788728.post-36311013857949140732011-04-30T06:15:54.988-04:002011-04-30T06:15:54.988-04:00Sorry to be a pedant, but but having been brought ...Sorry to be a pedant, but but having been brought up in Sheringham, It really bugs me to see it spelt with two 'r's. It even gives the correct spelling in the text that goes with the picture, so not even an excuse there.

Ab...you can never have too big a nautical library!<br /><br />About 20 years ago we used to holiday and weekend in Sherringham - just a few miles down the coast at Cromer there were several of those traditional boats motorised but still in use working from the beach - presumably engaged in crabbing. They are quite large - up to 30 feet or so and huge volume.Bursledon Bloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14020592383830135476noreply@blogger.com
