🔥 Behind the Scenes: Testing Our New Fire Training Simulator! 🔥

Kath & Jake have been putting our brand-new fire training simulator through its paces ahead of the launch of our MCA Approved Fire Safety Course for skippers and crew operating vessels under 24m. 🚤⚓

From tackling realistic fire scenarios to practising the correct use of extinguishers and emergency procedures, the new simulator allows us to deliver hands-on, practical training in a safe and controlled environment.

This course is designed to give professional and recreational mariners the confidence and skills needed to respond effectively in the event of a fire on board.

Take a look through the photos and videos to see the simulator in action! 👀🔥

🎉 Great News! 🎉

We’re proud to share that we have successfully passed our annual RYA inspection! ✅⛵🚤🛥️

The inspection included a thorough review of our training centre, policies and procedures, course documentation and full safety & equipment for all three of our training boats, and we’re delighted to have met the high standards required by the RYA once again.

A massive thank you to our two Chief Instructors Kath & Mandie for the incredible work they put in behind the scenes preparing for the inspection. Their organisation, attention to detail, and professionalism ensured everything was ready and helped make the day a great success.

We’d also like to thank Rob, our RYA Inspector, for his time and support throughout the inspection process.

This achievement reflects the hard work and commitment of our entire team in providing safe, professional, and high-quality training for all our students.

Well done everyone – another successful inspection in the books! 👏⚓🌊
