Marine Engineering Theory: Volume 1 – General

Now in its 8th year, the 3rd edition of this textbook has been written to cover the General Marine Engineering Syllabus content as prescribed by the IMO, and SAMSA codes in South Africa. The textbook covers the entire content from Officer of the Watch level, all the way through to Chief Engineer.

All of the sketches have been drawn in an “easily understandable” manner, with the intention of making the sketches easily replicable for examination purposes at level II (written examinations) and level III (SAMSA oral assessment).

At the end of the book are examination type questions for every chapter that have been asked over the past number of years in South Africa.
