Title: Complete?
Review: I purchased this book after I bought my first boat expecting to get some information from an experienced person. I have a lot of friends I can talk to about cars but, nobody to talk to about boats - especially a competition ski boat. I was hoping to get some incite into the workings of a boat, especially some suggestions regarding maintenance and the function of things I didn't have much experience about like a stuffing box or raw water pump or direct drive. I was dissapointed.It's a great book to start out with, if you don't know how an engine works or the basic function of a boat. If you are looking for maintenance tips, performance suggestions, solutions to problems you are having or anything specific, look elsewhere. This book gives an overview of these areas but no real information that you can use to diagnose a problem. You couldn't even close down your boat for the winter from the information. It is not comprehensive."General Guide to Gasoline Marine Engines" should be the title.
