Boating Fun 
 - Activities and Science for Boating Families

Boating Fun combines fun, crafts and activities with science experiments and conservation. It is full of illustrations and information about the techniques of boating.

Although it has been written for children it is perfect for beginners, with explanations on equipment handling, rules, safety, basic navigation and the weather.

There is an emphasis on developing competence to have fun afloat. This book will help children learn and enjoy being on the water while improving sailing skills and boating knowledge.

Boating Fun is dedicated to the historic (1909) vessel Te Aroha. During the 16 years that Mike and Dee owned and operated the Te Aroha they met many children and their families keen to learn about boating and marine conservation and this book is a result of those encounters.
