Editorial Reviews
Review
``It's sort of a cross between David Macaulay's The Way Things Work and a volume of Andy Rooney essays. Which means it's fun and educational at the same time.'' (Practical Sailor )
``If you are not not nautically obsessed prior to reading this book, you will most certainly be afterword.'' (Sailing )
``It's quite obvious Gerr understands the weaknesses of those of us afflicted with a passion for boats. Furthermore, he trades on our insatiable appetite for nautical tidbits. And he does it well. There's hardly an aspect of yacht design, construction, and operation that he doesn't touch on in his cheerful, chatty manner.'' (Sea )
