Runabout Renovation: How to Find and Fix Up an Old Fiberglass Speedboat

I purchased this book with a view to restoring an old (1968) fiberglass boat. I found it to be extremely informative, and giving a lot of information as to possible sources of materials and specialized help. This book, has made for me, what had at first sight appeared to be a monumental task, actually quite simple. I would thoroughly recommend this book to anybody intending to restore or repair any fiberglass vessel old or new

I bought several books and tapes,about doing fiberglass repair.They ranged from totally useless, to this book which should be a must buy.written in simple easy to understand language,I cannott praise this book enough.

I bought this book through references from a group of restorers on the internet. I was very pleased! This book takes you all the way through repairing and restoring an old runabout, from finding the right boat to final touch ups. I would call it mandatory if you're looking to restore an old fiberglass runabout.

This book goes through the basics in an intellingent and easy to read manner. I read it in two days, I couldn't put it down. If you want to purchase and renovate a late 1960s, early 1970s speed boat, BUY THIS BOOK. It spoke to me!

This book is the ultimate source of information for the do-it-yourself fiberglass boat restorer. The time, money and effort saved by following Jim Anderson's advice makes this an absolute bargain. By using this as a guide for my own restoration project, I now have a boat that is unique in appearance (1964 Glastron Starflite Deville) yet it is stronger in construction than it was new. But the best part is that I was able to do it all for less than $1,000...a fraction of the cost of a new boat! This $16.95 investment is a no-brainer.
