5 out of 5 stars The First Book to Read.   April 28, 2008
Ahoy!

If someone is interested in junk rigged boats; this is the first book to purchase and read. It established the subject and lexicon.

For years, I have owned and lived aboard the last NA29 to come out of the mold, It is a shame that this particular design is not included in the book. Also, I believe the book was written before the research on cambered sails on Junks was in, and it only discusses "flat cut" (no camber) sails. For that information, one pretty well has to go to the Junk Rig Assn. or Yahoo Junkrig Group.

Fair winds...
