COURSE DESCRIPTION
Course Duration: 10 two-hour weekly sessions.
The boating season is short and to minimize "down time" during the season our boats must be well maintained. Whether you perform your own maintenance or contract it out, the Marine Maintenance course is designed to provide you with the knowledge to keep your boat in top shape. The Marine Maintenance course, among other subjects, will cover protecting your boat from the elements, commissioning in spring and decommissioning in the fall for safe winter storage.
