"In an age of information superhighways, Messing About In Boats is a dirt road linking backyard Noahs, would-be circumnavigators, steamboat restorers and weekend racers. It embraces virtually anything that floats!" (Boston Globe Magazine, August 27, 1995) www.messingaboutinboats.com

If you are a rower who is going someplace (not just up and down between racing buoys), Open Water Rowing is the information resource for you.
