Wife says make room!
Free to good homes. Classics, but still lots of good info.
The Australian Yachtsman book needs to go to a Compass 28/29 owner, as it is the classic "owners manual" for these boats.
Pickup Northern Sydney, but I could also drop off in some areas, if not in a hurry.
PM me if interested.

Oh, and I have lots of back copies of Practical Boat owner mag.

Also , for L Francis Herreshoff fans, I have his coffee table book "The Common Sense of Yacht Design". This one is price negotiable, as it is a collector's item. Reading it is like chatting about yachts with an entertaining old uncle. He is very opinionated, and a man of his times.

I have a Duncanson 29, which was built along the same lines as the Compass 28/29.
Would it be worthwhile to have? Is the book solely on the Compass models, as the title implies a cruisers guide. How many pages?
Thanks

Based on the Compass designs but otherwise general.
