Craig O'D's CheapPages ... celebrating more than a decade of virtuality!
What are the Cheap Pages?
This is The Cheap Page. A pre-blog blog.
From the Cheap Page hang other Cheap Pages. They link to other stuffall over the place. They are:
Very elementary HTML, firstcreated with a Great Lost WYSIWYG Application, "Claris Home Page."
Begun in 1998 and 1999.
... about inexpensive pastimes.
... full of lists. Designed to load fast in the dial-up low-bandwidthdays.
Lots of DIY, especially boats and the cheapest of sailing boats: scows,canoes and sharpies.
E-Books and links to E-Books, most of which I published online longbefore anyone else was doing much of this. The pace of E-Bookpreparation has slowed, but changes and improvements will slowly beginagain.
Please note that some of the information, such as the Bolger Boat HonorRoll, is here as history only -- so various e-mail addresses orexternal links may be broken. I'll flag the "historical interest"items. The cause of Bolger Boats, Sailing Canoes, and Junk Rigs (forexample) are now served by multiple Web authors and discussion lists.The various Cheap Pages have been updated as far as possible to addlinks to these resources.
-- Craig O'Donnell, Dec. 2009
MastSailinEuropeandAsia - the classic by H. WaringtonSmyth (1906) Many sketches and pen and inkplates.Our one endorsement:
"Speaking of Craig O'Donnell.... To date I'veavoided listing Internet addresses on the theory that there are plentyof search engines out there and plenty of engineers to run them withoutmy having to get in the way. But Craig's "Cheap Pages" are a lode ofmost interesting material, including the text and drawings of HerbertWarington Smyth's Mast and Sail inEurope and Asia (1906) and Tiphy's Practical Canoeing(1883), and deserve to be mentioned andrecommended..."
