ENGINE MAINTENANCE (EM) covers the general construction, operating
principles, maintenance and repair of marine gasoline and diesel engines,
cooling, electrical, fuel, and lubricating systems and associated propulsion
components such as clutches, shafting and propellers. Since one of the major
objectives of the course is to help the student become more self-reliant afloat,
trouble diagnosis and temporary remedies are emphasized along with safety
measures. The course is not intended to produce trained mechanics but rather
more intelligent and more resourceful boat engine operators.
