5 out of 5 stars Must have for all sailors!   June 9, 2008
This is by far the most invaluable book that I think should be a part of every sailors book inventory. Very concise, easy to understand and packed full of information.


5 out of 5 stars Another great book   February 25, 2008
Just buy it, no mater if you're into making sails or not. I plan to be (for my self), and it's really been a gold mine so far.
Goes good with "Rigger's apprentice".



5 out of 5 stars The boat builder's bible   January 18, 2008
If you are even considering building your own boat, this book is a must have. The clear directions & tips provide invaluable insights into constructing sails that will be reliable & long lasting.


5 out of 5 stars Sailmakers Apprentice by Emiliano Marino   October 27, 2007
Excellent book! Very Descriptive and detailed information. This book will fill in so much for those who want to repair and maintain or modify their own sails.It describes sails in detail,and provides quick or permanent solutions to most issues. Lots of good illustrations. An excellent resource book.Easy to understand. I would also recommend Sail Care and Repair, by Dan Neri. If you have the two, you don't need anything else!!Both are well worth their cost and are good value!!!
