About this title

From the Publisher

Finally, a book for all boaters and every type of boat!
This new book is entirely rewritten from its first edition back in 1993. The 200 page 3rd edition of "Boat Naming Made Simple: The Complete Book" is the most comprehensive book on the subject of boat names ever written. This unusual book is great fun and highly educational whether you're a bass fisherman, cruising boater or a long distance racer; whether you choose power or sail - large or small. Years of experience by author Susan Artof and stories from around the world sent by letter, fax and websites, combine to make this one of the most unique and fun volumes on boating in any book store.

In this edition, readers will find John Marston's chapter on boat graphics wonderful. Besides learning how to create a great graphic look, he explains in easy to understand language the difference between using vinyl and paint as a medium for graphic application. Readers will learn how to navigate the web, using the book's own interactive website in order to find the best designers and sign painters for their boat graphics. This alone makes Boat Naming Made Simple a valuable choice for your library.

Boaters will also learn how to document their boat using the Coast Guard's specific requirements. This is especially important for long distance cruisers or racers who plan to leave the United States.

And, unless you plan to buy a new boat, every boater has asked the question about how to "rename" their boat. This is finally answered...and a complete ceremony is included for your pleasure. And if your boat is NEW, use the part of the ceremony which applies.

Looking for stories on boat history? This book has it...Looking for records of sailing races and the boats which broke the record....this book has it.

Looking for easy to follow rules of naming and ways you can avoid the difficult and embarrassing experience of putting the wrong name you expensive vessel? This book has it.

These are just some of the many special benefits you will find in this book. With more names, stories, myths and legends, this book is a must for anyone who has a boat or knows someone who does. Make it a part of your library today.
