"Don't even think of buying and outfitting a powerboat for long-term cruising until you've read this book cover to cover."
--Milt Baker, trawler yacht live-aboard and founder, Bluewater Books & Charts
Written for owners of large powerboats (more than 35 feet long), this book picks up where other references leave off. It is one of the most ambitious and far-ranging references ever offered to powerboaters.
Sid Stapleton (Winston-Salem, NC) has been a powerboat cruiser and marine journalist for 30 years and is a longtime contributing editor for Motor Boating & Sailing magazine. In 1993 through 1994, he voyaged from Maine to Alaska via the Panama Canal in a Grand Banks 49, a voyage of some 15,000 miles.
