Joel White
Boatbuilder, Designer, Sailor
A portrait of Joel White, naval architect and builder, sailor and citizen.
In a world often distracted by fashion and whim, the designs of Maine boat builder and naval architect Joel White hold special appeal. Simplicity, elegance, and strength are the words that define his work.
This book celebrates White's life and the boats he built, in words, stunning photographs, and plans. Because it is a collaboration of White's longtime friends and shipmates, it brings exceptional insight into his work. 70 color photographs, 31 drawings.
Bill Mayher, a regular contributor to WoodenBoat and other magazines, cruised with White for over twenty-five years. Maynard Bray, WoodenBoat's longtime technical editor, not only sailed with White but also worked alongside him, often playing a crucial role in design and construction decisions. Benjamin Mendlowitz is this country's premier photographer of wooden boats. He chronicled White's work for more than two decades.
