Intermediate Marine Electrical Systems
ATTEND IN-PERSON OR ONLINE
This class is being offered in a hybrid format, with participants being able to choose in advance if they will attend in person or online via Zoom.
THE COURSE
This newer class expands upon the concepts taught in the basic DC and AC classes and is intended for DIY and hands-on boaters wishing to do their own installations and maintenance. It covers topics such as inverter and battery monitor installation, smart charger selection and installation, GFCI troubleshooting, marine wiring and battery bank configuration, isolation and auto-transformers, galvanic potential measurements, etc. Class length is 3-4 hours and the Marine DC and AC Electrical classes are strongly preferred prerequisites.
A TRADITION
For nearly 15 years, the Olympia Yacht Club has been conducting classes for our members and other local boaters. The 2024 series of electrical-related courses has now been scheduled, and will be conducted in person at the OYC clubhouse in Olympia. One of our foundational principles is to encourage the science of good seamanship and navigation and thus we are opening these classes to any boater wishing to learn more on these topics.
OUR INSTRUCTOR
The developer and instructor of these classes is past commodore Jerry Budelman, whose qualifications include retired Intel executive, adjunct professor of engineering, holder of over 20 patents and a lifetime instructor and inventor. He loves to teach with an interactive and participatory style.
REGISTER EARLY
Space is limited, so register early! We ask that you register at least one week before the class if possible. Late registrations will be accepted - space allowing - but late registrants may not receive a copy of the course material. A PDF file is also available.
HOSPITALITY
Coffee, tea and other basic refreshments will be provided.
LUNCH
If you are staying for the afternoon course, lunch will be on your own from noon to 1:30 pm. Explore area restaurants or bring a brown bag lunch. Olympia Yacht Club is located adjacent to Bayview Thriftway which has an excellent deli. Order a sandwich ahead for pick-up or head over after the morning course to order your lunch and bring it back to the clubhouse for informal conversation with other participants.
