Description: The performance of routine maintenance and first-class repair work can be a source of pride and satisfaction for the boat-owner, or it can be a source of frustration and needless expense. The key to preventing frustration and producing satisfaction is an informed grasp of the options, and a thorough knowledge of the products and procedures. Volume III of The Practical Sailor Library, Maintenance and Repairs, provides just this sort of key. It is a step-by-step guide to keeping your boat youthful, both mechanically and cosmetically.
Over the years, boatowners have learned that the "maintenance-free" hull material, fiberglass, is subject to chalking, fading, and blistering; the "maintenance-free" rig and rigging materials, aluminum and stainless steel, are subject to crevice and stress corrosion, galvanic action, and electrolysis; and the "maintenance-free" exterior trim material, teak, is subject to aging and weathering from wear, water, and sunlight. Volume III, Maintenance and Repairs, covers the prevention and cure of all these problems from keel to masthead — as well as the maintenance and repair of the propulsion, plumbing, and electrical systems.
Maintenance and Repairs is not just for the boatowner who performs his own maintenance, however. Even the owner who has all maintenance and repair work done by the marina or boatyard cannot afford to be ignorant of the products and services for which he is paying. Regardless of whether you do your own maintenance or not. Maintenance and Repairs will help you keeping your boat looking and operating like new — maybe even better.
