[edit] 'CRUISING WORLD'S' WORKBENCH
Cruising sailors are always on the lookout for do-it-yourself ideas to make their boats safer, more comfortable, and more efficient. This book brings together the 200 'Workbench' projects, organized in functional categories such as cabin, deck, rigging, sails, electronics, and engine.
Cruising World's Workbench is a collection of 200 projects that will make any cruising sailboat safer, more comfortable, and more efficient. It is a lavishly illustrated, spread-based book that imparts information quickly through the Bingham's outstanding drawings. The book is a compilation of the best entries from the popular 'Workbench' column, a long-running feature in Cruising World, one of the largest-circulation boating magazines in the U.S. The premise of the column is novel: the magazine's readers submit tried-and-true ideas and projects that run the gamut of cruising boat customization and upgrade. Bruce Bingham selects the best ideas and then illustrates them with his superb how-to line drawings. Typical projects include an adjustable platform for mounting a radar antenna, a foolproof trick for lubricating the mainsail track using a lamp wick, and an ingenious method of incorporating compression springs in the mainsheet tackle on sailboats to absorb the force of an accidental jibe. To create the book, the editors of Cruising World have selected the best entries from Bingham's 'Workbench' column and organized them into chapters based on boat function, such as cockpit, galley, sails, and engine. Bingham contributes a new introduction to the collection.
