Nothing wrong with doing a good course on line and learning the theory behind whats going on, any chief marine engineer has to under go 1000's of hours of learning and theory to get that degree, even basic mechanic's doing an apprenticeship must also under take tuition/exams over many years to call him self a CERTIFIED mechanic,

Practical is obviously also a huge part of that process so if a novice IMHO I would be looking at both (especially going to sea!)where it may make all the difference,

Nothing wrong with learning from other's either just be sure they have the experience to back it up,
