    Course Outline

    Modern yachts are packed with incredible technology, but a blank chart plotter or a sudden battery drop can quickly turn a relaxing day at sea into a high-stress situation.

    Our brand-new, One-Day Marine Electronics Course is designed to demystify your boat's electrical systems. Whether you are a skipper prepping for a charter holiday or a boat owner looking to troubleshoot with confidence, this hands-on day gives you the practical skills to understand, maintain, and fix your onboard tech.

    No complex engineering degrees required - just practical, real-world knowledge to keep you safe and self-sufficient on the water.

    What You Will Learn:

    • The Essentials of Boat Power: Understand 12V vs. 240V systems, battery management, and how to monitor your power consumption so you never run flat at anchor.
    • Navigating Your Electronics: Get to grips with the backbone of your boat’s tech, including how chart plotters, AIS, radar, and VHF radios communicate (NMEA 2000).
    • Smart Troubleshooting: Learn how to use a multi-meter to find faults, trace wiring, fix common circuit breaks, and handle emergency electrical failures.
    • Preventative Care: Best practices for protecting your gear from marine corrosion and extending the life of your batteries.

    Why Book This Course?

    • Practical & Hands-On: Work directly with real marine components and testing gear in a supportive, small-group environment.
    • Boost Your Confidence: Gain the independence to diagnose issues yourself instead of waiting hours for an expensive marine electrician.
    • Expert Instruction: Taught by an experienced Marine Electronics Specialist who know exactly what breaks at sea and how to fix it fast.
