Reader Reviews
This review is from: The Boating Bible: The Essential Handbook for Every Sailor (Paperback)
The book has a lot of information in it. Unfortuantely, for me, it seemed to be a little bit of everything (is there anything NOT covered here?) but not enough in depth on anything. Not sure who the intended reader is for the book. It has a lot of good information but you will always want to be reaching for another book for more in-depth discussion. Would I buy again? Sorry, No.
