Year: 1997 Language: english Author: Verney Michael Genre: Handbook Publisher: Sheridan House Edition: Third ISBN: 978-1-57409-041-3 Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 280 Description: This book is dedicated to that grand breed of people of all ages who find pleasure, relaxation and fascination in going afloat — on sea, lake or river — in almost any type of vessel from a sailing dinghy to an ocean racer. Only a small proportion of these happy people are boat owners. Crews and guests are more likely to be invited aboard if they know something about yacht care. This applies equally to many families who take an annual bare-boat charter in some yachting paradise. Yacht care means more than just cleaning, painting and oiling. It starts with choosing the right type of boat. Then, everyone afloat needs to know enough about seamanship, dinghy work, etiquette, mooring and engines to ensure safety, avoid breakdowns, minimize wear and tear, and to show consideration to others. Professional craftsmen are not usually to be found at sea, or up a quiet creek. What everything costs when it comes to boat maintenance is detailed here for the first time. Established owners thinking of changing boat need this information, as do all newcomers. Costs are given for both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. They are actual costs and bear little relationship to the official rates of exchange. Annual inflation figures are widely published, and are easy to apply to bring these costs up to date as time goes by. All dimensions here are given in both metric and American units. The great differences in cost revealed between amateur and professional work will give encouragement to all do-it-yourself boating enthusiasts!
