MBQ Back Issues
Back copies of MBQ issues and special reports:Back issues of the Metal Boat Quarterly include over ten year's worth of articles and information all told. It could well be considered an encyclopedia of metal boat building and fitting out! Back issues and special reports are now available in PDF format from the new Member Center & Online Ship's Store in two forms:
If you prefer not to use the online store, back issues, either print copies or CD sets, can also be ordered by calling the Metal Boat Society at +1–360–695–4100 or faxing your request to +1–360–993–1600 and including your payment information. There are a limited number of individual print copies available (not all issues). Please do not send financial information by email. The online Ship's Store has a shopping cart available for online ordering convenience. That allows purchasers to make selections and pay electronically without having to mail or fax information to the membership office. A complete listing of the contents of each issue is below.
