THE CRUISING/BOATING SCHOOL

This course covers the diesel engine, it is a hands-on course. This course will not turn you into a diesel mechanic, but it will give you the knowledge to diagnose the normal things that cause a diesel to fail, and know if you can fix it or if it is serious enough to call in a mechanic.
