About the Book

Boatowners fight a never-ending war against the pitiless enemy - corrosion. Everett Collier comes to the rescue with this comprehensive, very readable handbook, telling the boatowner how to: find corrosion problems before they're obvious; take simple steps to prevent corrosion; protect all kinds of metal in every part of the boat and rigging; guard against the dangers of electrolysis. Boatowners will save themselves money, time, and headaches with the benefit of Collier's practical wisdom.
