Favorite Free Books? Yachting Related, that is...

So how about everyone posting links to their favorite boat books that are available for free download? Sea stories, technical, historical, DIY, safety, whatever.



I'll start off with a favorite of mine.

Dashew Offshore, Beowulf Publishing, and the FPB team have been blessed with the support of the cruising community for many years, and we’d like to return the favor in a small way. We are making Mariner’s Weather Handbook, Surviving the Storm, Practical Seamanship and Offshore Cruising Encyclopedia available for free as PDF files.
