Author Don Launer is known to boaters for his Cruising Guide to New
Jersey Waters, an information-packed work for those who would set
sail in and around the Garden State. Over the years Launer, who
sails his 32-foot schooner Delphinus out of Forked River, has
written many how-to articles, especially in the magazine Good Old
Boat. Now Launer has put a selection of his articles between the
covers of a book, Lessons From My Old Boat. It is a combination
how-to, hardware, electronics, rigging, accommodations guide
presented in a down-home style, easy to read and entertaining.

Donald Launer has compiled some of the hundreds of articles he has
written over the years, most of them in Good Old Boat magazine,
into the Lessons from My Good Old Boat book. Articles are grouped
into categories chapters such as sails and rigging, navigation and
environment. Most of the pieces have been updated. It's Launer's
third book.
*Boating Writers International*
This book, made up by the great many articles Don Launer has
prepared over the past decade, speaks volumes about this sailors
ability to communicate the knowledge he has gained over many years.
