So now you own a boat. It may be your first boat or your fifth. It may
be new or it may have had a previous owner who added equipment, kept
everything lubricated and adjusted, and even turned over to you his hand-
written notebook about adjustments, repairs and maintenance schedules.
In any case, your boat is more complicated than a house, probably better
made than a car--but nevertheless a mechanism with a lot of dials,
adjustments, and systems to take care of.
Charles F. Chapman, that redoubtable boat-owner and editor, had
such strong ideas on this matter that he published a book: Practical
Suggestions for Handling, Fitting Out and Caring for The Boat. The
original cover, from 1918, appears on the facing page. Now, twenty million
boats later, you own a boat. You probably already know that few boats
come equipped with an owner s manual (but there may be a good engine
manual, or good booklets about the water pressure system or the electronic
communications equipment). And this book is a successor to that early
book by Mr. Chapman, now brought right into the 1980 s.
