There is no more affordable, easily built, or utilitarian boat than the flat-bottom skiff. This profile of the skiff offers a look at its many varieties, including rowing skiffs, sailing skiffs, and skiffs designed for outboard power, as well as those suitable for use as yacht tenders, for fishing, for exploring, and for along-shore cruising. Beginning with a historical overview of the skiff, this book presents 17 specific skiffs by designers from Oregon to Cape Cod and includes techniques for building a skiff using a simple stitch-and-glue method.
