What Customers Say About Inspecting the Aging Sailboat (The International Marine Sailboat Library):

Great service and a great book for the person seriously considering buying a used sailboat and the professional dreamer.
Inspecting the Aging Sailboat (The International Marine Sailboat Library)The package arrived in very good condition book was new and I was very pleased.
Are those cracks just cosmetic or is there internal damage to the hull. This book provides a good overview of what is and what is not important when looking for a used sailboat. It is not an entertaining read but its short chapters get right to the heart of the matter. Is there just a crack on the bow or does that cause damage elsewhere in the vessel. If you can't answer these questions, you better read this book.
Inspecting the Aging Sailboat (The International Marine Sailboat Library)This is an outstanding reference for initial inspection of an older sailboat. It allows you to determine whether it is worth it to spend the money on a marine survey. Once we actually buy a boat, it will also be a good reference for keeping up with maintenance so as to repair small issues before they become expensive problems.
This allowed me to do my own cursory review to determine if a boat warranted further consideration. Getting an inspection is costly. This books allows you to rule some boats out on your own.
