Boatwatch On-The-Water Guide to Pleasure Boat Identification

BOATWATCH has become the most comprehensive guide in print for the identification of pleasure craft. The handy 9x6 format contains profile drawings of over 3,000 vessels: both power & sail: domestic & imported: the new, recent & famous classics from over a 60 year span. Presented in a format similar to the famous Jane's Fighting Ships, the vessels are presented (by length) nine to a page for easy inspection, comparison & boatwatching pleasure. Used by boat buyers & marine professionals (yacht brokers, underwriters, surveyors, etc.) Boatwatch is also on the recommended reading list for personnel of both the U.S. & Canadian Coast Guard. Used in search-&-rescue missions, it is also a valuable tool for the Customs Dept. & those in the drug surveillance program at sea. No other publication has endeavored to act as the master archivist for the before-it-is-lost-forever history of pleasure boat design. Whether the boatwatching is for personal pleasure or a business necessity, copies of Boatwatch should be at the helm stations & be available as a reference source in the office - yacht club library as well as the public libraries.Averitt, Max W. is the author of 'Boatwatch On-The-Water Guide to Pleasure Boat Identification', published 1990 under ISBN 9780962715204 and ISBN 0962715204.
