The book focuses on techniques, maintenance, and repair, as well as having a section on purchasing a wooden boat. includes and extensive glossary. most of the sources are from sweden, but everything else is quite helpful.. Re: best wooden boat repair/restoration books? if you are going to tackle a renovation or restoration, or even a decent sized repair job, it helps to know how the boat was built in the first place. i have found over the years the bud macintosh book, "how to build a wooden boat" is an invaluable tool.. The big book of wooden boat restoration is the perfect introduction or reference guide for both novice and experienced wooden boat enthusiasts. author thomas larsson, one of sweden’s most experienced and premier wooden boat restorers, has compiled his knowledge of the craft for readers and placed it in this book..
The complete wooden runabout restoration guide by don danenberg this book has a ton of information, mostly about chris craft plywood hulls, but does have some great info on clinkers too.. A guide to restore the structure, improve the appearance, reduce the maintenance and prolong the life of wooden boats with west system epoxy. this detailed manual shows you how to complete professional-level repairs and renovations that will dramatically extend the life of your wooden boat.. Wooden boat restoration is only viable when sufficient of the wood is still sound. how much you regard as sufficient depends on how much time and effort you are prepared to put in. professional boat surveyors don’t come cheap..
