More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Based on the RYA's Diesel Engine Course, this text explains how a diesel engine works and how to look after it. This second edition is revised to take into account developments in engine technology since the first edition was published, and contains a new section on how to winterise an engine. It is written in a non-technical language to appeal to all, and is aimed at boat-owners rather than mechanics. Hints, tips and faultfinding tables are included.
About the Author
Tim Bartlett began sailing as a child on the Thames near his parents' home. After teaching sailing in commercial sailing schools he became a full time yacht skipper at the Island Cruising Club. After 5 years running his own engineering company in Cornwall he became technical editor of Motor Boat and Yachting.

Format:Paperback
With the majority of RNLI call outs to yachtsmen being because of engine failure (odd for sailing boats, but there you go) this is an invaluable book. Excellent companion to the RYA one day course - but do the course as well for the practical experience. Good diagrams and helpful fault finding techniques.
