NW Boat School opened registration for its 2026 Marine Systems Workshops, led by a three-day Outboard Maintenance and Troubleshooting class built around the kind of fault that leaves an auxiliary dead at the worst possible time. The lineup also included Basic Outboard.

The Outboard Maintenance and Troubleshooting course ran July 13-15 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and cost $850 per course, with enrollment capped at 12. It covered fuel delivery, ignition, starting issues and routine service, and gave students room to see how a rough-running engine can come from fuel, spark, ventilation or plain neglect.

The workshop sits inside the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding’s marine systems program in Port Hadlock, Washington, at 42 N. Water Street. The school’s Marine Systems Workshops are designed for students of all experience levels, from recreational boaters to professional marine technicians, and the focus is practical training for recreational vessels.

The school also offers a 9-month Marine Systems Diploma and Marine Systems Intensives are five-day courses for marine professionals, technicians and experienced recreational boaters who want to expand their skills. Accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges, the program gives hands-on owners a shorter path to the kind of competence that usually comes from expensive yard labor and a few hard lessons.
