The time I spent at the School prepared me for my current job by allowing me real world experience. I was given the opportunity to tour boat owners’ vessels as well as diagnose and find issues aboard. Mike Downey, a former instructor, made it a point to thoroughly explore and understand ABYC standards and how they will apply at my job. I have used these standards on multiple occasions which have allowed me to perform better in my work environment. [As a student], I was given free range to troubleshoot and diagnose engines in the test tank under supervision and given direction on what to look for specifically. This has helped me to have better troubleshooting skills.
