Our Guarantee
At The Boat Galley, we have only one mission: to make boat life better.
Everyone on The Boat Galley team is a liveaboard cruiser and we understand the challenges that come with life on a boat. When our team encounters frustration, we come up with practical and innovative solutions.
This is how we came to radically reinvent the cruising guide, how we developed better reference materials, and how we created affordable, in-depth online courses that help us share our extensive knowledge with you at your pace.
Try our products and see. If they don't make your boat life better, use our 30-day FREE no-hassle return guarantee.

I’m sure it took some time to accumulate all this detail into one document. I only wish more sellers had provided this to us when we were shopping.

Our documents are compatible with anything that can read a Microsoft Office file. Unfortunately, Apples Pages and Numbers generally will not open these.
These documents are going to be very useful when I begin looking at used sailboats and to stay on top of caring and maintaining my sailboat.
