Try "Abebooks.com" for 2nd hand books.
Put 'Yacht repair' in the keyword section.
Michael Verney is always good for wooden boat repair.
Try asking on the 'Classic boat' forum ???
good luck

Adrian, if you are buying anything from Abe Books, find the best copy of Motor Cruising from The Lonsdale Library vol XIX. Excellent book and going for $11-12. Highly recommended.
