Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Many people dream of owning a boat but are deterred by the cost. Others enjoy modifying or rebuilding the interiors of old boats. This book, based on the author's 30 years' experience will be welcomed as a practical guide by anyone planning to build or modify a boat starting from an existing GRP hull. Every aspect of the building project is covered, from basic concepts, planning, organization & building to the final polish on launching day. The problems likely to be encountered en route are discussed, as well as the reasons behind the decisions & compromises. In particular the book explains: What do you look for when buying a glassfibre hull? How do you calculate how much anti-fouling will be needed? What is the safest way to design & install ventilation in a boat? What are the best materials to use for fuel tanks? How do you design & install a WC holding tank system? What problems will you encounter when installing boat electrics? How do you design & fit a marine engine exhaust system? How should you fit a VHF radio? Start with a Hull is packed with practical advice, & is a companion volume to the author's Marine Inboard Engines.
