This curated collection compiles historical sailing articles written by experienced mariners, naval architects, and yacht brokers, offering prudent, time-tested advice on the essential considerations when selecting a cruising or racing vessel.
Drawn from the pages of classic maritime publications (often dating from the early to mid-20th century), this guide provides a rich historical perspective on the process of becoming a boat owner. It emphasizes the importance of matching a boat's design, condition, and equipment to the owner's intended use, budget, and sailing skill level, principles that remain eternally relevant.
Carefully selected for a modern readership, these articles will be of considerable utility to anyone with an interest in sailing, and would make for useful additions to collections of allied literature.

- How to Sail
- Junior Skipper's Handbook: A Guide to Sailing for Boys and Girls
- Learning to Sail
- Outing Library of Sport: Boat Sailing in Fair Weather and Foul
- Sailing
- A Piratical Handbook on the Equipment, Handling and Up-keep of Open, Half-Decked and Small-Decked Boats
