Abstract:

The report is intended primarily to outline the present state-of-the- art in small craft design. This is done by providing a brief partially annotated bibliography of current references most useful to the practicing designer. If he uses these references, he can be reasonably sure that he has the best information that was available in late 1970 or early 1971. A secondary aim of this work is to emphasize the areas in which very little design information is presently available.
