The Boatkeeper's Project Book
This is a used, hardcover book. It has yellowed some from age but is in good condition with 120 clean pages. It contains ideas and instructions for modifications, improvements, and equipment installations for your boat.
No boat owner can resist the urge to modify what the designer, builder or previous owner hath wrought. For many, this is one of the pleasures and rewards of boat ownership.
