Dynamite Payson's "Instant Boatbuilding" aims to guide readers in constructing 15 boats designed by Phil Bolger. It offers plans and instructions for a range of boat types, including skiffs, pirogues, and dinghies, and features Payson's well-regarded, practical advice. However, potential buyers should be aware that only a limited number of the 15 projects include fully detailed plans.

The remaining projects feature only scaled-down images, a potential drawback considering the book's title. Despite this, the book provides valuable introductory content on boatbuilding basics, tools, and materials. The instruction is clear and easy to understand, making it a useful starting point for beginners.

However, more experienced boatbuilders, or those seeking in-depth knowledge, will likely need to consult additional resources. While not a comprehensive manual, "Instant Boatbuilding" offers a foundation for aspiring boatbuilders. The main body of the book is supplemented with several appendixes providing additional information, and glossary explaining the most frequently used terms.
