Here, fresh and unadorned, is advice and commentary on recent advances in engineering and technology that have made every other guide out there obsolete.

The most recent, industry-changing joystick, pod, and remote control systems
Maneuvering, especially around the dock and in close quarters situations
Safety equipment
Navigation
Advanced techniques
Powerboating also presents a special section on how to get your boat US Coast Guard-certified, and what's coming up on the horizon for alternative fuel and propulsion systems.
