About The National Marine Service Expo

Under the management of MCTINA, NMSE is being held for the 27th year.

NMSE has been dedicated to marine service and has been held annually in

Florida since 1992. This year MCTINA is moving to Manatee Technical College

in Bradenton, FL for the first time. MCTINA intends to rotate NMSE to different

regions of the country annually. Last year’s training was held in St. Joseph, MI.

Plans are to bring NMSE training to each region of the U.S. every 3rd or 4th

years. As the only service-oriented training event in the marine industry that

trains technicians already working in the boating industry, it provides valuable

update technical training for service professionals who are interested in

advancing their careers. NMSE technical training workshops are ideal for

workers who require training on specific systems, or technicians needing to

stay abreast of advancing technology who cannot take time off to attend school

full time. All attendees receive a certificate of completion and course credits

that will be applied toward the AMTECH (Alumni of MCTINA Technicians)

Specialist Program in their chosen area of Outboard or Inboard - I/O. See page

5 for more details.

TECHNICAL SKILL SET TRAINING (SS Series) SS-103-08 CAN Bus Systems Technology (Prerequisite Course) Today’s hottest technology for both engine and boat system control is CAN Bus technology. CAN Bus is the new central nervous system (communication network) for modern marine systems and is used by virtually all engine manufacturers and most production boat builders. This technology allows the operator to observe and control the propulsion system, electronic navigation, and other systems such as fuel and water tanks. As complex as it sounds, the built-in diagnostics simplify the use and diagnostics of the CAN Bus system. This course will explain the architecture of the CAN Bus, how it works and the various versions used today. Not all CAN Bus systems are the same or compatible. Hands-on experience with a simplified CAN Bus system is used. Conrad Kreuter is the instructor for this course. Conrad is an instructor for Kingsborough Community College in Brooklyn, NY. SS-102-08 Electrical Systems: Troubleshooting and Theory (Prerequisite Course) Finally, understand how electricity works! This course provides students with the proper fundamental knowledge and theory of electricity and how it interfaces with marine systems. Topics to be covered are: basic DC electricity theory; ohm’s law; magnetism; wire sizing; parallel and series circuits; batteries, basic wiring, switching devices, isolators, battery combiners; advanced battery systems; typical 20-foot boat wiring layout, and troubleshooting. ABYC specifications are used throughout the course. This course is taught by Conrad Kreuter, Kingsborough Community College. (3-Hour Evening Course) SS-102.1-03 Electrical System Theory
