Book Reviews of Quick and Easy Boat Maintenance: 1,001 Time-Saving Tips

Book Review: Book was a major money saver
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this book used on Amazon and found it to be extremely helpful. Granted, my boat is not a yacht and most of the wood/deck repair leaned toward Yachts. I still found this to be extremely helpful in repairing my bimini top, an refurbishing all the upholstery. I would have spent 3 times as much money on cleaners if I had not read this book.
