This vintage book is a complete guide to designing and making masts for a variety of merchant ships, including a ketch, a smack, a cutter, a schooner, and more. With simple, step-by-step instructions and a wealth of invaluable tips, A Treatise On Mast-Making will be of considerable utility to amateur boat builders, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: To Produce the Position of the Masts of a Schooner, To Produce the Position for the Masts of a Ketch, To Find the Position for the Mast of a Cutter or Smack, Rule for Masting a Schooner, Rule for Masting a Ketch, Rules for Masting a Cutter or Smack, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on boat building. This book was first published in 1840.
