New boat and yacht standards released

The American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) has published its 57th supplement of “Standards and Technical Information Report for Small Craft,” which covers all major boat systems and provides boat building and repair guidelines. ABYC standards are continuously researched, developed and revised by more than 400 volunteer technical experts and marine professionals on 16 Project Technical Committees (PTCs). Each year the standards are updated to reflect changes in industry best practices and advancements in technology. To purchase the standards manual and/or desktop subscription, visit www.abycinc.org
