Book Review

Sheridan House
$36.00

Payne is an international authority on marine electrical systems and electronics, and has previously penned two major books – Marine Electrical and Electronics Bible (now in its third edition), and Motorboat Electrical and Electronics Manual.

This new book – like the others – is an easy-to-understand read, but offers thorough treatments of the technical issues facing every boat owner.

Concise, compact and fully-illustrated for easy reference, it covers:

  • Boat plumbing systems
  • Fresh water systems
  • Hot water systems
  • Galley plumbing systems
  • Watermaker systems
  • Salt water systems
  • Bilge pump systems
  • Shower (gray) water systems
  • Sewage (black) water and MSD systems

Payne is a sailor and a professional marine electrical engineer and surveyor, with a long career in merchant shipping and the offshore oil industry.
