Descripción

From the Publisher Learn the Ropes From An Expert! Maritime expert and illustrator Hervey Garrett Smith's The Arts of the Sailor has helped generations of sailors learn the traditions of sound seamanship. A handy resource filled with history and all the skills involving rope and canvas needed by the average boat owner, it offers a complete course of knot, splicing, and ropework creations with useful diagrams. From sailor jargon and indispensable tools, to how to keep ahead of trouble, you'll also learn basic knots—the bowline, sheet bend, and rolling hitch, among others—and splices in three-strand and four-strand, short and long rope, and decorative knots and canvas work. Learn to create a rope mat, a canvas deck bucket, a ditty bag, and more from a founder and first director of the Long Island Maritime Museum.
