Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The Great Classic Yacht Revival Opening with a history of the golden years of wooden boats, the book celebrates the high point of craftsmanship, embodied in a plethora of fine materials and enduring designs. Despite the advent of modern materials, these skills have survived, ensuring the highest standards in restoration. Landmark restorations, such as Marigold and Partrige, and new-builds such as the "modern classic" Savannah are examined, offering insight into the minds of vessels' restorers and their owners. The book explores the objectives of designers who emulate the yachts of yesteryear by incorporating "retro" elements in modern designs - or by simply copying old designs wholesale. And it features a host of glamorous regattas where the many admiring eyes cast over the polished brass, varnished teak, and hand-stitched canvas bear witness to the growing popularity of the movement. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR002729829
