Book Description
The Little Blue Boat and the Marsh Man’s Gold! picks up a year on from the first adventure – The Little Blue Boat and the Secret of the Broads – which introduced the lovable Little Blue Boat, Able Sea Bear Teddy, the mysterious Marsh Man, the wicked Pincher Pete and the boat’s three young owners to its keen and receptive readers. This children’s novel is an exciting, fast-moving race against time as the three children – Lucy, Sam and Alfie, with Able Sea Bear Teddy and the mysterious Marsh Man – are helped by numerous animals, birds and other wetland creatures as they battle to prevent the evil Pincher Pete and his ruthless gang steal rare bitterns’ eggs, and ancient gold treasure from a sunken Viking longboat! The story takes the readers on a journey through Norfolk and Suffolk’s southern Broads and rivers, and introduces them to some of the creatures that live on, above, below and beside the water. It’s a perfect holiday read for families, especially those heading for waterside or rural locations, and is sure to entertain children and their parents. The Little Blue Boat and the Marsh Man’s Gold! is backed and endorsed by the Broads Authority, as it encourages youngsters to get out and enjoy the outdoors and our wonderful wetlands, whether by boat, canoe, bike, or on foot. The Little Blue Boat and the Secret of the Broads has achieved sales of nearly 1,500 and was nominated for the Jarrold New Writing Award at the Norfolk Arts Awards in 2013. This second adventure takes the book into slightly older territory as the protagonists and audience grow. The book will appeal to children aged five-11.

The Little Blue Boat and the Secret of the Broads takes readers on an exciting journey in a race against time, through one of Britain’s most magical waterways. A boat owner makes a final voyage from Essex to the Broads to give his small yacht to his grandchildren, but he’s taken ill and the boat is left adrift at sea with just a small bear on board. The bear and boat have to make their way through the Norfolk waterways to find the children before they’re seized by the authorities, or worse, stolen by the infamous Pincher Pete.

This reassuring, life-affirming adventure offers the reader an understanding of our waterways, and some of the wildlife that lives on, above, beside and beneath our rivers and lakes.

Book Description
Exploring the world's mystery from the deck of an ocean-going sailboat propelled by the wind and your own wits and skills, is the most magnificent of personal accomplishments. Amateur ocean sailing developed during the first half of the 20th century and reached its peak during the two decades after WWII. Then, mass produced and marketed boats subtly undercut the bond between the sailor and his boat. The sport lost its meaning. Wooden Boats for Blue Water Sailors explores the quiet counter-revolution to mass production boat-enabled by cold-molding and the epoxy bonding of wood--which has presented an opportunity for sailors to re-bond with their craft.Wooden Boats for Blue Water Sailors begins with a history of ocean sailing. Then it uses the sciences of material and structure to demonstrate the superiority of wood as a boat building material. It climaxes with the description of a new way for building an epoxy bonded wood boat that will last the next generation to use. An afterword describes use of the new technique to restore to life traditionally built wood boats that are failing, yet too precious to abandon. For sailors, Wooden Boats for Blue Water Sailors is a celebration of the wits and skills they exercise to sail upon the sea. For builders, Wooden Boats for Blue Water Sailors offers new techniques for economically building ocean going boats. For designers, Wooden Boats for Blue Water Sailors offers history to inspire them to remember, reflect and refine the requirements of the sea overlooked in the rush to modernity. For the craftsman, by itself, a short appendix concerning use of the tape measure will earn the cost of the book.Wooden Boats for Blue Water Sailors will delight and inform the sailor, boat builder, yacht designer and bring joy to those who love beautiful sailboats.
