Personally I'd want to take it on a test trip to be sure it's seaworthy and comfortable to fish out of. It doesn't seem that you'd be able to figure that out without some prior knowledge.
Should there be a comma after the word whereas?
Usually no, although it depends on the context. Example without a comma following "whereas": Old rose varieties are generally very fragrant, whereas the new hybrids often seem to have very little fragrance. Example with a comma following "whereas": He was polite and reserved at the office, whereas, if you saw him on the football field, you might not recognize that fierce competitor as the same person.

Commas before and?
I assume that you are asking whether one should use a comma before 'and' when writing a series of items. For example: When you are going shopping, please buy milk, eggs, butter, and cheese. Unfortunately, there is no one concrete answer to this question. In fact, the question as to whether one should put a comma before the 'and' when completing a series is so hotly debated among grammar enthusiasts that it has received a name: the Oxford comma. Those who support the use of this comma before the 'and' argue that when a comma is not used, it makes the last two items seem as if they are part of one unit. For example: My favourite types of sandwich are egg salad, tomato, peanut butter and jam. Though technically it is not grammatically correct if one takes 'peanut butter and jam' to be a single type of preferred sandwich, it is a common misreading of the sentence. However, for those who do not support the use of this comma, the argument is that 'and' takes the place of the comma--that and literally has the same meaning as a comma in this context. An example would be this: I need to buy pencils, erasers, pencil crayons and looseleaf. There is no real 'right' answer to this question; it is merely a matter of consistency and personal preference. I like to use a comma before 'and', but if you don't, that is also fine. The important thing is that you remain consistent. If you are going to put a comma before 'and' in a list, then always do it.
Do you put a comma before and?
It depends on the structure of the sentence. 1. If it is a compound sentence with one subject, the answer is usually no. Example: Bob ate his dinner and went to bed. 2. If it is a compound sentence with two subjects and two verbs (or more), the answer is yes. Example: Bob ate his dinner, and Suzie went to bed. The key is, could each half of the sentence stand as a separate sentence? If so, use a comma. 3. In lists, the comma before "and" is optional. The important thing is to be consistent. Examples: For dinner, I had steak, potatoes, iced tea, and chocolate cake. For dinner, I had steak, potatoes, iced tea and chocolate cake. Both are correct. Some people advocate using the last comma (called the terminal comma) to clarify the meaning. For instance, the two following sentences are both correct, but the second one doesn't have the terminal comma, and the meaning is ambiguous because of it: I dedicate this book to my parents, Ayn Rand, and God. I dedicate this book to my parents, Ayn Rand and God.
What words are prepitions?
Prepositions are words that describe some thing in relation to another thing. They modify other clauses. They often describe positions, times, and other aspects of things. IE: For the time being, things are okay. Things are okay for the time being. Up there, the stars can be seen easily. The stars can be seen easily up there. In the city, people seem friendly. People seem friendly in the city. In all the above examples, the prepositions are words like "for", "up", and "in". When a prepositional phrase is in the beginning of a sentence, like in this one, the prepositional clause must be set off by a comma. That makes it easy to identify; however, it doesn't need to have a comma when the preposition is at the end of the sentence.
