Description:
This quick-reference guide is an on-board data bank, compiling in one place all the facts, figures, tables, and graphs boat operators need. In 17 chapters ranging from deck gear to electronics to rigging and fuel calculations, it groups information logically for both power- and sailboat owners. The amount of data a boatowner needs within fingertip's reach can be staggering: recommended anchor sizes and types, cleat sizes for specified lines, fender sizes, GPS accuracy, VHF radio ranges, electrical power consumption, propeller pitch and diameter, and multitudinous other arcana. Boatowner's Handbook puts all this information in one place, boils it down to its most accessible form, and makes it easy to retrieve.
