SMALL YACHTS. 



Their Design and Construction, Exemplified by the 

 Ruling Types of Modern Practice. 



The Fotiebt and Steeam Publishing Company takes pleasure in announcing the large sale of this magnificent quarto volume, bearing the above title. This book covers the 

 field of Small Yachts, with special regard to their design, construction, equipment and keep. The opening chapters are devoted to a consideration of the 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 lines of a boat already built is likewise described in detail. 



All 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 catboat and American centerboard sloop to examples 

 of the narrowest and deepest British cutter yet built. These yachts have their 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 International Rules of the Road, 

 Signal Service, and a Bibliography appear in the Appendix. 



The work is profusely and handsomely illustrated with 1.50 illustrations inserted in the text, besides the sixty-three plates. 



A folio (size of page 14Jxl2i inches), printed on paper specially manufactured for it, and with great beauty of execution and finish m every detail, making a volume vastly 

 superior to any other work of the kind ever published. Pages 370, with 136 plate pages additional, or a total of more than 500. Price, postpaid, $7.00.
