Marine Maintenance
The full 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.
All boats need maintenance to correct for the gradual deterioration
from wear and tear let alone exposure to the elements. A boater should
be constantly on the alert for signs of vessel degradation, and make
repairs while the problem is minor.
From spark plugs to bottom paint, the Marine Maintenance course covers
all the basics for DIY boaters.
