Survival Training for the Maritime Industry
Chris’ lectures were competent and the examples were always very clear. The practical sequences were just great!
Most of us will probably never have to go to a life raft.
Nevertheless, it is advisable to be prepared in case of need, to react properly even in tricky situations and to keep calm. It is a proven fact that trained seafarers have significantly higher chances of survival in emergencies.
A Safety Training is a must for professional sailors and a valuable and possibly life-saving supplement for everyone else.
