The Slopemasts by Mike Smylie

Britain has had, over many hundreds of years, a huge diversity of working boats operating around her coasts. This work offers an account of the Lochfyne skiff that emerged from generations of innovation and which resulted in one of the prettiest workboats to have graced the British shores.
MIKE SMYLIE is a maritime historian who specialises in the fishing industry and has written numerous books and articles on the subject, including Thomas Summers & Co. and Voices from the Shoreline for The History Press. He is also a founder member of the 40+ Fishing Boat association, which was founded to promote and preserve British fishing traditions and vessels, and edits their thrice-yearly newsletter Fishing Boats.
