Inhaltsangabe
Menhaden steamers were double framed, heavily built offshore fishing boats in use during much of the 20th century. As the name implies, they were used to catch menhaden, a member of the herring family used for bait, oil, and fertilizer. Powered by diesel or steam hundreds of these boats fished the waters of the eastern United States, from Maine to the Gulf of Mexico. It was a huge industry employing thousands of people working. During the World Wars many menhaden steamers were pressed into service for the U.S. Navy, searching for submarines among other duties. Today these boats are gone, the plants mostly closed or torn down, and the men retired, but this new book, by boat modeler Steve Rogers, captures the memory of the boat, and allows the reader to recreate it in 1/2-inch scale, resulting in a 56-inch model. With clear drawings, plans, and step-by-step illustrated instructions, the reader moves from carving the hull master, through the authentic steps of construction, to the final painting and rigging of the boat. The result is a model that commemorates a bygone period of maritime history and reflects traditional craftmanship by the proud builder.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Steve Rogers loves working boats, and the skipjacks is one of the best. Following the acclaim of his previous three books on model boat building, Steve offers a guide for building a skipjack. This is, perhaps, the most ambitious of the projects presented to date, and he leads the craftsperson step-by-step through the process. The result is a beautiful boat in full sail._x000D_The model is in 1/2" scale, based on a skipjack that is 45 feet on deck with a 15 foot beam. Drawings, patterns, jigs, and accessories are all detailed for the aid and instruction of the reader. Everything is illustrated in clear color photographs with concise captions which describe the action. AUTHOR: With beautiful color photographs, helpful drawings, and a wealth of knowledge that comes from years of craftsmanship, Steve Rogers leads the reader through the building of a model of the North Carolina Spritsail Skiff. The model is in one-inch scale and is built in much the same way as the actual boat was. Clear step-by-step directions are given for everything from the jigs to the sails. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9780887409370
