About this Event

Welcome to the world of marine diesel! This two day course is designed to benefit mariners who operate vessels equipped with diesel engine(s). The course will take place over a weekend using both lecture and hands-on experience to teach the basics components, operation, maintenance and troubleshooting of a diesel engine. The course is structured around the basic understanding of a diesel power plant, what tools to have on board, when to pay for a professional mechanic, and things to look out for to prevent further problems. Participants will have access to real engine components and a real engine to make the transition between theoretical to practical understanding.

The course will be taught by Meredith Anderson, a USCG-licensed marine engineer, advanced diesel instructor at Seattle Maritime Academy, and regular columnist for 48° North magazine. Her experience as a mechanic is varied and deep, and she has developed a following for her ability to fix her clients’ engines while also helping them understand what she’s doing and why.
