Make classic paper boats that actually float, thanks to a remarkable new technology. Printed on colorful waterproof (yes, waterproof!) paper, each of these 18 model boats will bob merrily along--without Titanic consequences. Forty-eight sheets of boat patterns come with step-by-step instructions for assembling accurate replicas of all manner of recreational and historical vessels. Drawn from different nautical eras, each boat is accompanied by a fascinating look at its construction and lore by maritime historian Jerry Roberts. Challenging and fun, this hands-on book is the perfect gift for model kit lovers, engineers, history buffs, and seafaring enthusiasts everywhere.
