  An updated reference book for boat owners, builders, designers, surveyors, repairers and chandlers which includes more tables of lengths, widths, weights and strengths as well as new data on the latest high tech developments - from anchors to masts, propellers to gas cylinders, cleat sizes to winch bases, and hatches to bolts, bearings, cabling and piping. This book provides information on the breaking strength of stainless steel rigging wire, the correct height for a galley top, the recommended size for seacocks or what length a mooring rope should be. It will also tell you the average length, beam, draft, displacement, ballast, sail area and horsepower of typical yachts.
