DYNO TESTING

DYNO-mite Dynamometer 

donated by The Jaguars Foundation in 2003

Building a water tank component
 for the engine dyno to test outboard motors

Captain Chuck teaches fiberglass layup
and is an excellent craftsman

Designing components for this original creation

Working on structural integrity as well as personal integrity

  1. The next step after structural integrity is to test the fit of the design in the real world application by actually fitting the engine into the water tank and running a dyno test

2. After structural integrity is complete the
next step is cosmetics

Testing was successful.  The vent fan removes exhaust fumes outside the building.  The tank supplies enough water to cool the engine while the water brake discharge replenishes the water in the tank with cooled water and drains hot water outside the building

Mr. Dick Locke from Land and Sea is an excellent tech support person.  His years of experience take things we try hours to figure out and turns them into seconds.  Definitely worth the call. 

Dyno Testing proved challenging and tested skills that were learned in shop class and in the classroom.  These skills can be used in real world applications.  Besides all that we had FUN
