I bought this new on Bol.com for € 15,99 soft cover. Must have when you love rigging
My FAVORITE rigging book!
Again a new book, even if there is little time for me to read. This wreck, found near Newport in 2002, was completely unknown to me. The ship was built in northern Spain around 1450 and foundered during repairs in the port area of Newport around 1470. It is believed that it fell into English hands or was bought by the English. One possible owner may be the Earl of Warwick, as it is already in the upper range of tonnage with its 160 t.
Evan T. Jones & Richard Stone (eds.): The World of the Newport Medieval Ship. Trade, Politics and Shipping in the Mid-Fifteenth Century. 2018. 276 p. Softcover
The book consists mostly of text, there are only a few images and is also a bit expensive at Amazon at € 36.50. But the research project needs a lot of money, so you can understand that in a way. Twelve authors contribute the results of their previous research, which of course does not only relate to the specific ship or its remains, but also place it in a larger political, economic and social context.

Newport Ship - Wikipedia
Very interesting video - and it looks like an interesting read -> many thanks for sharing with us
Yes, but one must keep in mind, that it is not a book written for modellers. I shared it because of the historical value of the wreck. It seems to be the most important find of the period (mid 15th century). The recontruction of the hull is very reliable and leads to the question of whether the proportions of the Mataro Model are possibly distorted. Both, the Newport Ship and the Mataro Model are of spanish origin.
Greetings, Hartmut

Dutch shipbuilding in the 17th century.
Two books, in Dutch, referenced to frequently, see herewith also posts of Ab Hoving.
1) Nederlandsche Scheepsbouw-konst open gestelt by Cornelius van Yk
2) Aloude en Hedendaegsche Scheepsbouw en Bestier by Nicolaes Witsen
Both books can be found on various websites, but this website is rather friendly in getting yourself a copy; https://archive.org
As stated before, both books are in Dutch, but are also illustrated and I think the formulas are rather self-explanatory.
I was triggered into looking more into Dutch shipbuilding by the mention of the so-called "schalenbouw" or shell-first method and this is what I ended up with.
Enjoy!

I hole heartedly agree with you there, but the illustrations might be worth paging through.
Copper plate engravings are a wonder of detailed skilled craftsmanship that is only realized if you try to do one. I can spend hours looking at good ones. Rich (PT-2)
