A New Rig For Ships And Other Vessels: Combining Economy, Safety And Convenience is a book written by Robert Bennet Forbes and published in 1851. The book discusses a new method for rigging ships and other vessels that combines economy, safety, and convenience. Forbes argues that the current rigging systems used in ships are outdated and inefficient, and proposes a new system that would save money, reduce accidents, and make navigation easier. The book includes detailed diagrams and illustrations to explain the new rigging system, as well as examples of how it could be used in different types of vessels. Forbes draws on his extensive experience as a ship captain and businessman to make a compelling case for his new rigging system. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of maritime technology, as well as for sailors and shipbuilders looking for new ideas and innovations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
