DIESEL ENGINE WORKSHOP A WINNER

12 women came together at the Mack Boring Training Facility in Middleboro, MA, Saturday and Sunday, March 10 and 11th.

They were an eager group of women who had some very serious offshore sailing plans or were in middle of retrofitting their own boat. Others were frequent crew members on boats with engine and they wanted to learn more about the diesel engine.

As in most of the workshops, women shared their experience and worked together on their assigned engines when we got away from the classroom and into the shop. Lots of high fives and wide grins and applauses when those engines were started Sunday afternoon. Larry Berlin, the instructor, was ready with the answers, and when he could not give one, he had the direction to follow to arrive at the answer. We shared time and supper at a local restaurant Saturday night.
