I love books and just downloaded Sea-Steading from IUniverse and I see here that "The American Practical Navigator" has been recommended. In my search for this book I found it free from the US Government "National Geospatial - Intelligence Agency" (YOUR taxes at work!) at http://www.nga.mil/portal/site/maritime/?epi_menuItemID=c56aa099e2bff9525b2a7fbd3227a759&epi_menuID=35ad5b8aabcefa1a0fc133443927a759&epi_baseMenuID=e106a3b5e50edce1fec24fd73927a759
It's a 35 Meg download so if you don't have hi speed internet visit a friend with it..
I was drawn to this site from the interview on FurledSails.com Pts 1 & 2. I'm still in the dreaming stage but I know which Wooden Boat I'm going to build and live on, making no provisions for the placement of any engine.
