Book Reviews of Marine Diesel Engines: Maintenance, Troubleshooting, and Repair
Book Review: Great, but . . .
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm at a bit of a loss on how to review this. It's a great reference, BUT if you already have Calder's Boatowner's Mechanical and Electrical Manual: How to Maintain, Repair, and Improve Your Boat's Essential Systems (referred to my most cruisers just as "Calder"), this book does not add a lot that's not covered there. If you already own Boatowner's Mechanical and Electrical Manual: How to Maintain, Repair, and Improve Your Boat's Essential Systems, I'd recommend getting a book by a different author on the diesel as there's a greater likelihood of one of them having just the piece of information you need. My suggestion of an alternative:
Troubleshooting Marine Diesels
Other reviews have covered this book in detail, plus there's a new edition out, so I won't go into further detail.
