The newest product
from Cummins is not an engine but a program, an innovative one that
will make the lives of Cummins customers a lot easier. It’s called
the Captain’s Briefing, and it involves an onboard introduction
by a certified mechanic. The program, which is free, is open to owners
of recreational boats delivered in North America after October 1, 2000
powered by Cummins high-output engines. As a bonus, if the boat also
has an Onan genset, the briefing will include it as well. (Onan is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Cummins.)
Topics include start-up
and shutdown guidelines, basic maintenance, and normal operating procedures.
The service person will also introduce the owner to his or her local
Cummins dealer and answer any questions about topics ranging from engine
performance to warranty coverage.
