The Museum Of Old Techniques
For almost every electronic device or oil driven machine there used to be a low-tech alternative that was powered by human muscles, water or wind.

Knight's book contains not only early electric equipment and steam driven machinery, but also human and animal powered machines.

Also, building a rowing shell seemed difficult, better to start with a kayak. For those of you who don't know, stitch and glue is a well established method of building all kinds of boats. There are some really nice kayak building kits out there, and you will definitely get better results than I did with a kit, but I'm pretty happy with how my kayak turned out. There's a few free kayak plans on the internet. Another option for the true DIY'er is to design your own kayak using FreeShip, DelftShip, or your favorite 3D CAD software.
