Lofting--enlarging a boat's plans to full size--is an essential step in the process of building a boat. It is also a step that confounds many boatbuilders, amateurs and professionals alike. In this volume, veteran boatbuilder Allan Vaitses provides a clear explanation of the process. This shop manual is the only available text completely devoted to the subject. Book jacket.
i have only flipped through this book so im not going to say much about whats in it. i just wanted to say that my book came with the spiral binding....maybe some of them do not?? it seems that way,according to one other guy .... this title came up so darn often ,no matter where i was reading,,or the website,,,when it came to "LOFTING they always came back to this book. from some of the referrals i read,,,i trust them,,and eventually give this a read.

I always wanted to know what lofting is all about. Well, now I know. The book is very interesting and explanatory. Although I found some illustrations confusing, I think that it covers the subject in a significant depth. Recomended. I even think of lofting my next boat.
