Yacht Design Explained: A Sailor's Guide to the Principles and Practice of Design

Editorial Reviews
WoodenBoat Review, January/February 1999
The basics of yacht design and then some; intended for the serious sailor seeking a better understanding, with emphasis on modern yachts and principles; clear, concise drawings and diagrams.

Blue Water Sailing, November/December 1998
This is perhaps the most useful book on sailboat design since Ted Brewer's delightfully readable "Understanding Boat Design"...Killing's text is supported by terrific artwork on every page guaranteed to make the learning process as visual as it is cerebral....The next time your eyes glaze over three paragraphs into yet another technical boat review, reach over and grab this little nugget. It works better than Visine.
