Customer Reviews

Easy to read - love the reference guide

This is a good book to have if you are a boat owner. We are repairing an old boat and really like the "quick reference guide" area in each chapter. It provides need-to-know information at a glance.

Excellent Book to keep forever!!

Being boating enthusiasts, this book provided our family with the detailed information needed to keep "our baby" (Boat) in tip top shape! We have been looking for answers to the many questions concerning grooming and upkeep of our boat for years. We just ordered two more copies to pass onto other boating friends, as well. Too bad they didnt make the pages water proof!! This is the BIBLE for your BOAT! A must have! A must Keep!

Gold

already wearing it out

I love it, it gives so much info that, I have already read thru it twice to get it right.

Finally, a book devoted to boat maintenance.

The people at International Marine know a subject that was in desperate needed of a book. This book not only describes methods to keep your boat looking great but also names names! It provides the brand names you can buy from your local marine store. This is a must buy for any boater's library.
