Miscellaneous Commercial Sail Collection

This collection contains miscellaneous plans for commercial sailing vessels carrying passengers or cargo, of any period or nationality, ocean or costs, including those with auxiliary power. Fishing vessels are not included. The collection represents the work of a wide variety of designers and builders, some of whom are still in business. Most of the plans are copies, rather than originals, and many of the designs do not have complete construction plans.
