An excellent source of info and opinions. Carries on from vol 1 with very little repetition.
Buy the Book then the Boat January 12, 2008
I just purchased an Antique Chris Craft and I wish I had bought this book first. The book has great tips about the different types of boats, what to look for when buying a boat, and discussion on Marine Surveyors. By the end of the book you will have a much better idea if you have the skills, time, tools, and shop to restore a wooden boat. I really appreciated that the author has strong opinions about various boat restoration processses and is not afraid to make them known. He explains in depth why he likes some techniques and doesn't like others. I found the book easy to read although I would recommend the reader spend a little extra time in the section on terms so you can follow directions. Definitely plan on also purchasing Vol 2.

The Danenberg books, Volumes 1&2, have an amazing amount of information that is well explained and clearly supported with illustrations and photographs.
A must have set for the classic wooden boat enthusiast. Know what you are getting yourself into before you begin the project and you will find the going much easier.

This book is well written and is something you can read just for reading sake! Been doing boat repair for a long time and learned a lot from Don. Both Volumes 5 stars.
