Description
Colour photo--sequences and clear text show even a ham--fisted beginner how to fix their boat. The two aims of this book are preventing problems and curing them when they do happen (even at sea). This is the best--illustrated book ever produced on maintenance and Manley has spent over a year photographing each stage of each topic.
