Product Description
William Sheridan has been making models for 35 years. These include model trains, plastic models, wooden ships and numerous ship-in-the-bottle models. He is a recreational sailor and has crewed for many races on Long Island Sound. He is an engineer by trade and has held the position of engineering manager for 24 years. He holds over ten patents and has published several technical articles. The unique blend of sailing, model making and engineering background have enabled him to write this book with the first-time ship modeler in mind.
