We finally have a business book for boaters. It covers all of the steps to begin chartering. He discusses the pros as well as the cons. The captain obviously has time on the water and is genuinely interested in helping his readers get started. His enthusiasm and sense of humor are obvious in this informative book. I reference it often. Want to charter? Get this book.
