SMALL YACHTST 



Their Design and Construction, Exemplified hy the 

 Ruling Types of Modern Practice. 



The Fohest and SxREAjr Pubi.ishtng Company takes pleasure in anuouuciug the immediate publication of a magnificent folio volume, beaiing the above title. This book is 

 intended to cover the field of Small Yachts, with special regard to their design, construction, eqnipmeut and keep. The opening chapters are devoted to a consideration of tbe model 

 and the draft, their relations to one another, and the purposes which they subserve. Full directions are given for producing the plans of a yacht with reference to the chief points in 

 design, and the method of taking off the fines of a boat already built is likewise described in detail. 



Afi elements entering into design, such as Resistance, Stability. Balance of Rig, Handiness, Displacement, etc., are dealt with in separate chapters. The rules necessary for the 

 mathematical computations, and a review of theory and practice close the first division of the book. 



The second portion comprises the description of the Plates, covering the whole range of type in small yachts, from the shoal c'atboat and American centerboard sloop to examples 

 of the narrowest and deepest British cutter yet built. These yachts have tlieir lines, build and fittings depicted in the Plates, which are drawn to scale. With their aid and the specifi- 

 cations presented, the reader is placed in possession of accurate information concerning the mould, accommodations, rig and characteristics of all .styles of yachts which have received 

 favorable recognition. Sporting boats, combination row and sailboats, and various examples of special form are introduced. 



The third division offers a comprehensive review of single-hand sailing, to which small yachts are, especially adapted. Directions are given as a guide in selection of type and sail 

 plan, and subsequent equipment and proper management. 



The iron work of yachts, their gear, yawls, stearing apparatus, boat building and much other closely related matter is entered upon. The new In tiernational Rules of the Road, 

 Signal Service, and a bibliography appear in the Appendix. 



The work is profusely and handsomely illustrated with numerous illustrations inserted in the text; and there are sixty -three plates as follows;

FOR PROFIT AND PLEASURE. 



The gun shown above is our NEW COMBINATION 

 AIR GUN. This is tbe most complete arrangement ever 

 offered. It combines two pieces in one (a perfect Rifle to 

 shoot a regular .23-100 cartridge, and a supex-ior Air Gun to 

 sshoot darts, slugs and shot). It can be instantly changed from one to the other, and has a steel barrel 

 rifled. All the parts extra heavy, and so constructed of best material to stand continuous service, mak- 

 ing the most durable gun manufactured, and by far the most practical long-range Air Gun ever made for 

 gallery or field. WE MANUFACTURE A FULL ASSORTMENT OF AIR GUNS SUITED TO MEET 

 THE TASTES AND WANTS OF EVERY ONE. The quality of our goods has estabhshed them in all 

 the prmcipal markets of the world, and their superiority has induced the United States Navy to place 

 ^them, with success, on their school ships. I^^IUustrated price lists sent upon application. Address
