Art of Rigging"Few, today, can realize how important was the art of rigging a ship and reeving her gear in the days just old when all aloft was wood and hemp; or how great the part it has played in the building of Empire." Introduction. Although mastery of the art of rigging is no longer required on board today's ships, legions of serious model ship builders who wish to rig their ships correctly need to learn the art in miniature.

"Few, today, can realize how important was the art of rigging a ship and reeving her gear in the days just old when all aloft was wood and hemp; or how great the part it has played in the building of Empire." -- Introduction.Although mastery of the art of rigging is no longer required on board today's ships, legions of serious model ship builders who wish to rig their ships correctly need to learn the art in miniature. This book is widely considered the best manual ever produced on rigging the sailing ship. It is based on the extensively revised and updated 1848 edition prepared by Captain George Biddlecombe, a Master in the Royal Navy and former merchant seaman. The book is divided into five parts:
The First Part contains an alphabetical explanation of terms and phrases used in rigging. The Second Part consists of directions for the performance of operations incidental to rigging and preparing it on shore, with a table of the comparative strength of chain and rope. The Third Part contains the progressive method of rigging ships. The Fourth Part contains a description of reeving the running rigging and bending the sails in addition to the rigging of brigs, yachts, and small vessels. The Fifth Part comprises tables of the quantities and dimensions of the standing and running rigging of ships, brigs, fore-and-aft schooners, and cutters, with the species, size, and number of blocks, hearts, dead-eyes, etc.
Serious modelists, naval historians, armchair skippers -- any sailing buff -- will want to own a copy of The Art of Rigging. Complete and wonderfully clear, it is now available in its first inexpensive paperback edition. It belongs in every maritime library.

A Very Nice Lightweight, but Warm Jacket
I was surprised at how light this jacket was when I took it out of the nice box it came in. Despite its light weight, it is still a very warm and cozy jacket.
The lining of the jacket is a soft fleece, which is very comfortable. It also allows for easy layering with sweaters and shirts. The lining is very warm and cozy; it's moisture-wicking, as well, which will keep you nice and dry.
The outer shell of the jacket is perfect to keep that cold wind out! It also helps with the sun, with a UV protection rating of 30+. It seems very durable, but it is not bulky at all. In fact, the whole jacket stretches a bit for even more comfort and a good fit.
Whatever climate you live in, this jacket will provide you warmth and comfort without bulking you up like the Hulk. it's a great little jacket to keep in the car or at the office.

Great Vest
this golf vest is amazing. It’s very well-made. It fits well, I’m a double X and I’m 62 and a slice of pizza from 230 pounds. I just love it and plan to buy more. I believe it’s gonna wear very well, but I’ll let you all know in a month or two after I’ve worn it a couple times and washed it a couple times.

As Advertised!
Product arrived promptly & well-packaged (shrink wrapped packaged & enclosed inside additional box). Golf vest was received "as advertised" & appears to be of good quality. Vest was fairly priced & is very comfy, lightweight, stylish & wrinkle resistant. Purchased as a gift for my adult son for his future golf adventures. Size/fit will need to be determined by my son when he prepares for his next golf outing. Very pleased with my purchase & will consider additional purchases from seller in the future.
