This Old Boat by Don Casey (1991)

whatever your motivation to boating, you must understnd that there is a lot of expense and maintenence envolved. Sailing is even moreso, since there is so much hands-on. You should acquire the special knowledge and training in the handling and craftsmanship envolved. This Old Boat is more or less the bible of the committed sailor. NOt only does it cover all areas of routine work, it goes into depth to start you on being able to evaluate a project, materials envolved, and excellent how-to, so that the project comes to fruitiion, which enables you to consider more significant tasks. Soon you will have accomplished the work, know it was down right, and have the pride of self mastery. This is what has made sailing, the craft that it has been, down literally through the ages. A solid, well built boat, with the custom mods that make it YOUR BOAT, moving crisp and solid on the wind, stable and manuverable, and admired by other sailors, will keep you stadily filling your nautical library with Chapman.
a fair breeze and a good trim to all
