 Book was a major money saver April 10, 2007

I bought this book used on Amazon and found it to be extremely helpful. Granted, my boat is not a yacht and most of the wood/deck repair leaned toward Yachts. I still found this to be extremely helpful in repairing my bimini top, an refurbishing all the upholstery. I would have spent 3 times as much money on cleaners if I had not read this book.

Amazon asked me for a review of this book. I am grateful to Amazon but it would be better for them if they could send me the book. It has been more than 6 months and I still did not receive the book.

This book has wonderful ideas about using commonly available items such as witch hazel and petroleum jelly to clean and maintain your boat. Our dock neighbors were so impressed at the cleaning ability of the concoctions this book recommends that everyone now has a squirt bottle of the stuff for their boats. Highly recommended.

My first experience was with the deck wash. The stuff that I was using cost about $10 per bottle. The deck wash that I made from the book worked just as well and it cost me under a dollar to make. I haven't even gone in depth yet.
