I have owned boats for nearly 40 years and have done extensive work myself and have learned from making more than one mistake. If I had been able to take this course 40 years ago I would have been able to avoid those mistakes and could have saved thousands of dollars in hiring “professionals” to do work I wasn’t comfortable doing myself. I’ve take all of their courses including electrical and mechanical and now have the knowledge to complete nearly all aspects of boat upgrades and mechanical diesel engine maintenance. I also appreciate how they point out areas where a professional should be hired due to the complexity or for safety reasons. I am about to complete an extensive upgrade of batteries, alternators, inverter/chargers, solar panel installation and battery to battery chargers as well as improve my grounding, bonding and lightening protection. This course gave me both the theoretical and practical knowledge so that I feel comfortable completing those upgrades.Another bonus is that I can always refer back to the materials if I forget or need to refresh my memory and they also take time to answer any questions that I might have as I undertake such a huge project.Additionally, as I sail offshore these courses have given me the tools and confidence to solve almost any issue that arises and helped me establish a spare parts list.Many Thanks to Jan and Nigel!
