1-Day Basic Diesel and 2-Day Hands On
"Thank you Rebecca. I found the course to be very powerful. I think that you and Larry did a great job on both the logistics and the training. I believe that most of the value I got came from the hands-on exercises on Thursday and Friday. I would never have understood my engine, or had the courage to loosen a bolt on it, as well as I do now if I hadn't taken this course. I feel that everybody who relies on a Yanmar engine in their boat should aspire to take this course. I will sign up for it every time I buy a new boat (if it has a different model engine than the one I have now)..." - Bryan

"Good Morning Rebecca & Larry. Thanks for your note. Yes, I thoroughly enjoyed both classes as they were not only informative but fun. I now feel confident that I can perform all general maintenance on my engines. Thanks again." - Bill

"One thing forgot to include in my written evaluation was the beneficial effect of the hands on part of the Seminar. I already had a reasonable amount of theoretical knowledge but the opportunity to actually work on an engine (that I wasn't worried too much about breaking) made a tremendous difference.
I'm also sure you realize that Larry Berlin is a mechanical/diesel engine wizard.
I constantly marveled at the extent and depth of his knowledge. I will not hesitate to recommend your Seminar to everyone I run into at my marina this summer."

"Hi, I found the seminar most informative and useful. Larry did a great job. One gets the idea he has done this before!...In fact, a good friend and sailing buddy said he took the course in NJ 20+ years ago...still remembers Larry. There is no question that I will cruise my new Beneteau 393 (Yanmar 4JH4E) with more confidence this season...and possibly save a few bucks on maintenance. I have suggested to Cape Yachts, where I purchased the boat, to recommend this course to new boat owners, who do not have experience with diesel engines."
