Specialized and expensive, but if yours is a yachting community, you should know about this for young and old enthusiasts. Atkin is one of the foremost small yacht designers; this tells of his outstanding ships, with full details of their construction and performance. There's only a little of the personal, but there's a wealth of detail about design and building, specifics of tanks, below deck equipment, decks, sails, masts, etc.
