Hmm, seems I cackled too quickly here. My credit card was promptly refunded as
the book has already been sold. Another copy I tracked down in nearby
Gloucester MA was just sold ... and I'm waiting to hear back about another copy
sometime during the middle of this week. The only other two I've been able to
find so far are each running >$100 - ouch.
Of course, one could ask why I don't just borrow the book from a library.
Well, I figure I'll go to one this evening and try to hunt it down, but book
ownership is so ... fulfilling :D
Thanks for the lead, Lindsay. In any case, the hull and deck are coming along
nicely!
