Knave of Hearts is on a distinguished road
Talking Howdy everyone!

So I just made my sail net account, and I am very interested in boat design, if you would like to suggest any books to me, please leave their titles in comments! If you know of any other nautical design resource, I’d love to know about that too. Oh, and if you are wondering about my username, it’s from an old book called “The Knave of Hearts.”

Thanks a ton!

welcome aboard. We have a section here devoted to design. You may enjoy reading through.

There are many good books on design. I suggest you start with basics. While not new, I like Danny Greene's "Cruising Sailboat Kinetics" and Dave Gerr's "Nature of Boats". You can probably find both reasonably on ebay.
