Offshore safety & survival training |
Whether you are an offshore racer, a seasoned skipper or a crew member headed offshore, we invite you to learn how to prevent damages and injuries on a seagoing sailboat and how to react and lead a crew in emergency situations.
This intensive training includes participatory exercices and lectures, equipment demonstrations and practical exercises. Participants need to be in good physical condition as there will be wet drill in a pool, including emergency simulation training involving foul weather gear swimming and life raft boarding and righting.
