Synopsis

Are you intimidated by the prospect of installing, repairing, modifying, or replacing the wood accents that make your fiberglass boat more functional and distinctive? You needn't be. Simple, abundantly illustrated, and clearly written, here are the instructions you need to replace toerails and hatch boards; install handrails; repair coamings; build wooden racks, boxes, and shelving; or tackle just about any other woodworking project above or below deck.
