About this title

Synopsis

Written by a cruising powerboater and marine journalist with more than 30 years' experience, Stapleton's Powerboat Bible is the most ambitious and far-ranging reference ever offered to powerboaters. Thoroughly comprehensive, up-to-date, and authoritative, this "must-have bible" covers everything from choosing and equipping a cruising powerboat to techniques of navigation, seamanship, and passage making. An indispensable resource, this jam-packed guide fills the needs of the more than one million enthusiastic operators of big powerboats (more than 35 feet long) in the United States alone.
