A Somewhat Irreverent Look At The Design of The Long Distance Cruiser

Costa Mesa, California: Wilson-Stone, 1974. Hardcover. 8vo. Near Fine / Very Good. Item #006273

Full navy leatherette. 172, [4] pp. Light wear to spine ends and corners. Slight tilting to spine. Dust jacket chipped to spine ends, worn to extremities, rubbed to covers. Bill Rothrock's experience in the marine and advertising industries tends to make you sit up and take notice when he says something like, "...don't launch a long distance cruise in something designed for production economy, produced only for profit, and judged seaworthy by an adverstising copywriter!" There is no shortage of printed advice about boats. But until now, there most certainly has been a shortage of straight talk about what boats should be!
