Description: Confessions of a Boatbuilder. By James Douglas Rosborough. Nimbus Publishing, Halifax, NS, 2000. First edition. Illustrated with numerous drawings and black and white photos. Softcover. 260 pages. Measures 9" x 6". The autobiography of the acclaimed Nova Scotian boatbuilder, James (Doug) Rosborough. From his modest beginning in the 1940s constructing eight-foot punt rowboats, Rosborough's nautical design efforts grew to include three boatyards, the construction of over 150 vessels-most of them schooners. This book reveals the unexpected trials and triumphs involved in the design, construction, outfitting, and operation of these beautiful vessels, as well as the character of a self-determined boatbuilder who grasped one of the last windows of opportunity before the wooden boat-building industry bottomed out.
