About the Author

A marine engineer with 26 years of service in the Canadian navy, Ken Scott is the proud owner of Scot-Free II, a 36-foot steel sloop designed by Bruce Roberts. Scott had the hull custom built and then spent three years fitting it out himself. During that time, he learned firsthand about the advantages of metal as a boatbuilding material, as well as the problems many amateur builders encounter. Since launching his boat, he has cruised more than 11,000 miles in the Pacific, the Caribbean, and the Atlantic. He lives in Victoria, British Columbia.
