-Carry out a detailed check on your own boat the end of the season
-Identify problems and get them dealt with before they get serious
-Get to know your boat in a lot more detail, so if a problem develops at sea you will be more able to cope
Organized into chapters covering: Tools of the trade (basic tools, moisture meters, fingers and feel, smell, mirrors, sources of information); Checking the hull (including wood construction and rot, GRP laminates, osmosis, metal construction, keels, anodes); RIBs and inflatables; Engine and systems; Stern gear; Plumbing; Mast and rigging; Electrical systems; Interiors; Safety equipment.
