This Old Boat

Don Casey's first book and a classic among sailors, This Old Boat is a practical guide to buying an older fiberglass sailboat and turning it into a capable, handsome cruiser without spending a fortune. Casey walks readers through evaluating a used boat, then covers the repairs and upgrades most boats eventually need, with clear explanations and step-by-step illustrations. Written for do-it-yourself owners, it has helped tens of thousands of boat owners save money and understand their boats better. This copy is the original 1991 International Marine edition (a later printing), not the revised second edition of 2009.
