Part of a series which looks beneath the surface of everyday things and explains how and why they work as they do. This book covers subjects such as where engine fumes escape from, how lamps send messages to other boats, how fenders protect the side of the tug from bumps and bangs, and how a paddle steamer works. It also answers such questions as where is the catch stored on a fishing trawler and what is below deck on a motor yacht?
