Diary notes from Anders Olsson. A fisherman in Torhamn tell lively stories about his life in 1850's. 36 pages, in colour, profusely illustrated with drawings by Anders Olsson. By Bertil Andersson.
A book about the last fishing boat built in Blekinge. A description of a large boat building in oak by professional boat builders in 1992. And a description of the measurement of the boat. Also a description of the time-consuming model building, how it was done with materials and methods.
Today there are not many who can make a measurement of a boat. because it requires some special skills. Both in making the measurement and to draw it out on a drawing sheet so that it is comprehensible for future boat builders, model builders or researchers.
A very interesting compilation of the many different types of boats that existed in Blekinge before the plastic age, many of them are now gone forever. But we also see that there is a future for the wooden boat with new builds of the smaller boat types.
