Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Certificate)

  • Engine performance monitoring — start and operate motorboat engines at varied throttle settings, independently identifying misfiring, unusual vibration, or smoke patterns during dock tests.
  • Scheduled maintenance execution — complete full routine service including oil, filters, fuel line inspection, and gear lube changes on common outboard and sterndrive models with minimal oversight.
  • Engine component replacement — remove, replace, and reassemble gears, piston rings, and ignition components, verifying torque and clearance specs without direct supervision in a marine service shop.
  • Mechanical auxiliary repairs — diagnose and repair power tilts, bilge pumps, and power take-off units by referencing OEM service manuals and applying standard troubleshooting sequences.
  • Operational waterway testing — mount motors to boats and conduct on-water performance tests at multiple speeds on local waterways, recording results in structured service reports.
  • Cooling system diagnosis — idle motors under load, monitor thermometer readings over time, and determine whether cooling system efficiency meets manufacturer specifications.
  • Propeller and shaft adjustment — inspect, repair, and re-pitch propellers or adjust propeller shafts to restore proper thrust alignment on recreational boats.
  • Service record management — document inspection results, test data, and recommended follow-up work using spreadsheet or office suite software in a dealership or independent shop.
  • Customer communication — explain diagnostic findings and recommended repairs to boat owners in clear, non-technical language to support informed service decisions.
  • Troubleshooting familiar faults — apply deductive reasoning to isolate root causes of common engine faults such as hard starting, overheating, or fuel delivery issues in typical shop scenarios.
