Diesels Afloat - The Essential Guide to Diesel Boat Engines (Manley Pat)(Paperback / softback)

Diesel engines are installed in just about every yacht and in most large motorboats and, while professional help is often at hand, sometimes it is not. Indeed, engine failure is one of the most frequent cause of RNLI launches.
This book explains how to prevent problems, troubleshoot and make repairs using safe techniques. It could also help you save money on expensive bills for yard work you could do yourself.
Diesels Afloat covers everything from how the diesel engine works to engine electrics, from fault finding to out of season lay-up. With this guide and your engine's manual you can be confident in dealing with any problem and get the best performance from your boat's engine.
The book also covers the syllabus of the RYA Diesel Engine and MCA Approved Engine Course 1 (AEC-1). This edition has been thoroughly updated by former course lecturer and currently chief engineer
