1. Canoes Under Sail |
||
John Bull's first book "Sail Your Canoe" gave many people the inspiration and information they needed to rig their canoes. The interest it provoked led to much experimentation and development. John's new book "Canoes Under Sail" draws on the advances of the past few years and is an up-to-date beginners' guide on how to rig a canoe but there is also much here for the experienced sailor. back to the top |

3. Over the Sea to Skye. Early Travels by Canoe to the Scottish Islands and West Coast 1874-1876. |

These are adventures of early canoe sailors on the West Coast of Scotland. They were taken from newspaper cuttings pasted into a battered old pocket notebook which stood for many years on a book-shelf in the club room of the Clyde Canoe Club. The book includes contemporary illustrations from the archives of the Clyde Canoe Club (now the Loch Lomond Sailing Club) and the Royal Canoe Club and excerpts on the design of sailing canoes and canoe cruising at the time as well as information about the boats and sailors mentioned in the stories. |
