The Adlard Coles Book of Outboard Motors by Melanie Bartlett
Aimed at boatowners rather than experienced mechanics, this book explains how even the most sophisticated of modern outboards use simple processes to convert fuel to power. A boon to anyone who puts to sea with an outboard engine. Includes rescuing an outboard dropped in the sea!

'Tim Bartlett has written yet another successful book in addition to his many technical manuals which is an essential reference for the serious sailor.' * Cruising Magazine (March 2011) *
'covers the full range of motors down to those that power yacht tenders...Its a reasonable introductory volume, for those who would normally panic and take their engine to a mairne engineer the minute it misbehaves.' * Sailing Today (May 2011) *
