About the book
The textbook for the Royal Yachting Association's one-day Diesel Engine course. It explains how a marine diesel works and walks through each of its systems - fuel, air, cooling, lubrication and electrics - then covers the routine checks and servicing an owner can do, and how to trace the common faults that stop an engine when you most need it.
Andrew Simpson is a yacht surveyor and long-time contributor to the British yachting press. The edition photographed here came with a DVD.
