With an examination of the restoration process, including details on specific outboard motors, accessories, and add-ons, this guide to the boats that revolutionized family boating following World War II offers practical advice for both casual boaters and aficionados. Listing nearly 600 steel and fiberglass runabout builders, their contact information, company histories, and the boat models they offer, this manual is essential for anyone wanting to authentically restore, equip, or purchase a vintage runabout.

Tail Fins and Two-Tones: The Guide to America's Classic Fiberglass and Aluminum Runabouts begins with a lengthy overview of stylish American runabout boats, and then offers a meticulous listing of the hundreds of companies that made them. Each listing includes the company's current address, if still in business, and many offer notes on the types and distinctive features of boats each company has made or continues to make. Author and public school administrator Peter Hunn has been a boat buff since age 10; he applies his home-grown enthusiasm in this superb, user-friendly guide for avid boating enthusiasts, especially those searching for the perfect model of runabout to suit their tastes.
