DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p>The enjoyment of boating includes both the pleasure of using the boat and the satisfaction of properly maintaining it. To many boaters, working on their boat is part of the fun, to say nothing of the savings in costs.<br /><br />This course will equip you with the knowledge required to prevent onboard problems, carry out specialized tasks and tackle both short-term troubleshooting as well as long-term boat care.&nbsp; It features practical information and handy tips suitable for both new and existing boat owners. The dream of owning, maintaining and using your own boat without great expense can be achieved through the completion of the Boat &amp; Engine Maintenance Course.<br /><br />This twelve week course consists of two parts. The first is on general preventative maintenance; the second concentrates on the engines and related systems of power and sail boats. <br /><br />In the boat maintenance section, you will find information on maintaining the hull, rigging and running equipment of a powerboat and sailboat. Information on boat trailers, their maintenance, loading and balance of the trailer, is included. This section of the course will give the student knowledge and guidelines for the general maintenance of their vessel.<br /><br />The engine maintenance section focuses on the operation of boat engines and associated equipment.
