Building Outrigger Sailing Canoes

Popular in Hawaii and throughout the South Pacific and Indian Oceans, outrigger canoes combine the romance of the South Seas with a ruthless efficiency of design and breathtaking sailing performance. Based on traditional Hawaiian and Micronesian types, the designs are lightweight, easy to build, and screamingly fast. Dierking shows you how to build these boats using stitch-and-glue and strip-planking construction, explains what tools and materials are required, how to rig and equip the boats, and more. Includes complete plans and building instructions for three different boats.
