Great, I love it, simple explanations, great guy. I love the safety aspect of working on both dry and wet . glasses and gloves . be also aware of batteries, they are in a contained area for a reason, always secure covers, the old ones have acid, new ones a gel. Many can heat, burn and explode your boat, so take care of them, every year and winter . Just in case you didn't realise they start your engines, they cant run your stereo for a day, or use microwave, or leave your lights on all night .
Happy boating from Capt Stan

Just got a job as a mechanic on boats. I'm what they call green (new). Was looking at this video for tips for someone who doesn't know much about engines. Any advice is greatly appreciated

Hi, I’m totally new to boating and had dream of owning one. I’m looking for a used cabin cruiser about 25-30’ length and price range from $20-30k. What do you recommend (brand, model, yr, etc)? Any response is greatly appreciated. Thank you
