Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Transform Your Runabout with Expert Guidance
For boat enthusiasts who own a beloved yet worn-out fiberglass runabout, or for those hesitant about the high prices and inconsistent quality of modern boats, Runabout Renovation is the ultimate guide. This comprehensive book provides essential knowledge on how to rejuvenate a dilapidated runabout into a stunning showpiece, all while saving a significant amount compared to purchasing a new model.
Authored by Jim Anderson, a seasoned runabout renovator from Minnesota's renowned Land of Ten Thousand Lakes, this book walks readers through the entire renovation process with clarity and humor. The journey of restoring an old runabout is not only manageable but also cost-effective, often simpler than home improvement projects like adding a deck or remodeling a room.
Key Features:
- Step-by-step instructions to choose and survey the right boat for renovation.
- Guidance on making cosmetic repairs and repainting your boat for a fresh look.
- Detailed techniques for replacing the floor and upgrading interiors with reupholstering and carpeting.
- Expert advice on building a new transom and enhancing electrical and mechanical systems.
- Additional sections on repairing aluminum boats and installing essential accessories like horns, lights, bilge pumps, and live wells.
The backyards of North America are home to countless rundown runabouts waiting for the right touch. With Jim Anderson's expertise, you can create a superior boat that surpasses new models in quality, all for a fraction of the cost. Just like a beautifully restored classic car, your renovated runabout will radiate class and charm.
Unlike most literature focused on larger yachts, Runabout Renovation is specifically tailored for the owner of smaller boats, addressing the unique challenges and opportunities they face. Many marine technicians and dealers often overlook the little boats, but this guide fills that gap, making it an indispensable resource for both prospective buyers and current owners looking to maintain or enhance their boat's value.
Whether you are in the market for a used boat, seeking to improve your current vessel, or simply dreaming of a project that combines creativity with practicality, Runabout Renovation is your go-to guide. With its informative content and engaging narrative, it ensures that every reader is well-equipped to tackle their renovation journey and achieve stunning results.
