Description: Yacht decorators and designers talk a slick, chic lingo that dances with ideals, dotes on romance, delights in theory. That's all well and good ashore, but you and I are boat owners. While we'd like to be rhapsodizing about mauve and aubergine, our language leans more toward words like dry rot, mildew, algae, knockdowns, diesel soot, corrosion, leaks, rust, beating to windward, and getting pooped.
Pretty is as pretty does.
This book is a guide to products and techniques that will make life aboard your yacht more comfortable, more swank, and more in pace with today's opulent life-style, but without compromising the kinds of materials, preservatives, placement, and construction that are demanded by the serious, seagoing, pleasure boat. Dressing Ship is not a guide to cute new shades of chintz. Nor is it a how-to for the ship's carpenter, electrician, or painter. It is for all men and women who want a more liveable boat, both those who are working with a professional decorator and those who are doing some or all of the work themselves.
Our theoretical boat is in the thirty-five-foot to sixty-five-foot range. Her owners like to get the most for their money and want to spend it with a view not only to today's comforts but to tomorrow's maintenance, good looks, and resale.
While styles and tastes tend to change slowly, technology is in constant revolution. So, it's here that the yacht owner most needs guidance in taking advantage of exciting new marine materials and techniques.
No matter how extravagantly you intend to decorate your boat, or how tightly you must pinch pennies, this book will lead you through questions, answers, solutions, and decisions. My hope is that the resulting boat will bring you years of pleasure, fewer of the wrong kinds of surprises, and enduring value.
