20 small sailboats to take you anywhere.

Book by John Vigor. I just received one from amazon and it is a misprint. It starts on page 35 and then repeats when it reaches page 35. Anybody else have this problem? Is there any that have the first 7 chapters?

You missed the best boat in the book! Alberg 30!....I am not biased or anything I just own one FWIW Amazon has always been great for buying and selling books for us. I assume the same goes for returning. good luck

What good is 20 small boats, if you can't see all 20?

My copy is fine as well.

I should have read the low rating reviews before I bought it. A couple of people stated that they had this same problem and also received a misprint as a replacement. So how big is this author in the sailing world? Maybe if everybody returns their misprints and I keep the only one I could sell it on ebay for enough to buy a boat
