The Best Tips from Women Aboard

Rating:
Summary: Not bad, but not as helpful as I thought it would be.
Review: After I started reading the book, I immediately found it difficult to follow. It was not well organized, as topics jumped around dramatically becoming a bit annoying. It seemed as if the author just had everyone on their email distribution list send in tips, and then they pasted them all together without little thought and hurriedly put out the book. Also, what cracked me up was the drawing of a teddy bear next to a lamp. (Any live-aboard, or boater for that matter, would know not to have any combustible materials next to a heat source!) A lot of the tips were sophomoric and not very helpful to experienced boat live-aboarders. Not a horrible book, but definitely not as good or as helpful as I had hoped it would be.
