4.0 out of 5 stars
A rambling memoir of the pains and perils of owning a boat,
By jerryas@earthlink.net (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Small Craft Advisory: A Book About the Building of a Boat (Paperback)
I picked up Rubin's little classic at a remainder table, thinking to peruse it when I ran out of other reading material. Shame on me. This is an intensly personal and delightful little book. Not for the non nautical, neither is it for the practical. If I could I would drop Mr. Rubin a short note with one word. "Thanks."J.A.Schroeder Seattle, WA

Wonderful and inspiring tale,
By johhnyx "johhnyx" (rochester, ny United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Small Craft Advisory: A Book About the Building of a Boat (Paperback)
It's easy to love this book, whether you're even a casual boater or a landlubber. Mr. Rubin gives some great insights into his life and the reasons why one makes the choices they make. I read the opening about him building the small boat as a child to my wife, who absolutely was entranced by the images. Even though I live near one of the Great Lakes instead of the Atlantic Ocean, "messing about in boats" is one of the greatest joys in life, which the author has aptly demonstrated in this book.
