Editorial Reviews
Review
``Boat lovers who are used to designers who conceive the same boat over and over, camouflaged with a face-lifting here and there, will be amazed at Phil Bolger's diversity--Here are novel and wonderful boats.'' (Boatbuilder )

``Bolger has a way of seducing even the lay reader into thinking about and beginning to understand boat design.'' (Cruising World )

``. . .entertains, informs, and makes you think about boats in ways you probably thought weren't possible--Boats with an Open Mind is wonderful, its author priceless. (WoodenBoat )

Cruising World
"Bolger has a way of seducing even the lay reader into thinking about and beginning to understand boat design."
