Mudlark, built in 1953, is about to sink - and author Ian Scott decides to save her and spend years restoring the wooden boat. His insights on wooden boat work are invaluable for any wooden boat owner and libraries catering to them.

Mudlark, build in 1953, is a modified version of the iconic Meadow Lark, a shallow-draft leeboard sharpie ketch. But she is about to sink. Ian Scott decides to save her. This is the story of why and how he devoted many years to the restoration of Mudlark, and of what he learned in the process about wooden boats and, not least, about himself. It is also the story of his imaginary conversation with Mudlarks ghosts: the designer, the naval architect who modified the sail plan, the commissioning owner and the builder. All are long dead, but their work lives on in Mudlark.
