  • Get what you pay for!

    A bit pricey, and yet what price the ability to repair just about anything mechanical/electrical on a boat when out there on your own? Explains things simply in layman terms. Even if you do employ an 'expert' for repairs, you won't be totally in the dark - the book allows you to understand what is/has to be done. You pay for peace of mind, and the book is worth the price of admission.

  • Excellent handbook for the boater.

    It's the bible of boat systems, motor or sailing. It reads like a textbook but is still engaging.
