CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.5 based on 6 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.

Lots of products not available in Europe  
This book covers washing, cleaning, polishing etc your boat. There are instructions and a lot of ideas on household chemicals which can replace expensive boat-labelled products. There are a lot of product recommendations - not only generic advice. The downside of this is that a lot of the products described are not available in Europe.

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!
