Description: Drawing on fifteen years in the boat business as, successively, broker, yard manager, magazine
editor, and surveyor, Hewitt Schlereth presents a comparative method for evaluating
boats that requires virtually no prior knowledge on the part of the would-be purchaser.
He simply teaches what to look at and then shows how to let your own common sense and
judgment take over. Written in a lucid, conversational style, the
book is more than a how-to handbook. It is sprinkled with wry observations about boating
and the boat business; it forthrightly addresses such human issues as how to select
and deal with, first, a broker, and then a marine surveyor. Since the author believes boats are for fun,
the tone of the book is light, avoiding the tendency of many experts to speak of flaws in
terms of high dudgeon or moral outrage. Indeed, one potentially somber moment-the
inspection of a truly doggy boat-produces a sample survey report of genuine hilarity.
In all, this is a thoroughgoing book by an expert who addresses himself to the real concerns
of boat buyers.
