Yacht Designs

In this book he also has plenty of smaller craft that most of us can aspire to, but he has chosen this time to show us some of the larger yachts that have come from his office in later years. Many of us don't find larger yachts quite so interesting as smaller ones, but Mr. Garden's are distinctive enough to often be quite compelling and fascinating even for the dedicated small boat sailor. I remember being on a delivery trip ferrying a 35' powerboat to the yard where she would haul out and seeing his "Manderlay" charge by under sail. The speed at which such a large vessel could move in a moderate wind was quite compelling and beautiful. In any case no matter what size or type your are interested in you will find plenty to dream over here whether you are a Hornblower type, or see yourself as a starship captain. (A great many beautiful drawings and plenty of photographs.)
