On 26 September, we’ll once again be hosting the RYA Diesel Engine course, with instructor Simon Cater.
It will be a full 8-hour day dedicated to understanding, maintaining and troubleshooting marine diesel engines. 🔧⛵️
During the course, we’ll cover topics including:
⚙️ The four-stroke cycle
⛽ Fuel systems
💧 Cooling and air systems
🔌 Engine electrical systems
🛠️ Spare parts and essential equipment
❄️ Winterisation and maintenance
There will also be a hands-on practical session using a fully operational Volvo Penta D-75 marine diesel engine, giving participants the opportunity to put their knowledge into practice.
No previous experience or training is required, and the course includes the RYA Diesel Engine Course Notes.
