Boating-Exposed!: MIS-Adventures Ashore and Afloat
Boating-Exposed takes a lighthearted and in-depth look at the popular pastime of boating. Both the first-time novice and the experienced salty dog will enjoy this pleasurable and witty book. Boating enthusiast and Seattle native Bill Kaster offers an amusing, sometimes wacky, but always entertaining perspective that reveals the peculiarities of owning a boat (or should we say of a boat owning you?).Set in the mariner's paradise of Puget Sound, Boating-Exposed covers it all from the art of the first-time purchase in At the Boat Show to the traditional captain's legacy of going down with the ship in The Law of the Sea. You'll find everything you need to know and more in this comprehensive guide, including Naming the Boat, At the Marine Hardware Store, The Anchor- Friend or Foe? as well as the always useful Sex and the Boater, The Y2K Problem: Resolved and A Letter of Legal Advice.The perfect gift for the power boating or sailing enthusiast, this book is equally amusing and insightful for spouses and friends of the avid boater. Accompanied by the comic illustrations of Bob Cleland, Boating-Exposed has a dose of Dave Barry in its irreverent but knowledgeable approach to boating, reminding the reader that humor is the only way to stay on an even keel

A Roasting of Boating!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book made me laugh. The author leaves no aspect of boating untouched with his keenly humorous insights into the whole boating experience. A must read for old salts and landlubbers alike. I look forward to more books from this author. To sum it up in "old Norse"...Ya, it vas vurth a gude larf!
