As being a pilot-trainer myself for over 30 years, I know it is very difficult for experienced masters to start studying again and to focus on the new role as a pilot. At the other hand the new pilots are excited and eager to learn, which is always a pleasure for the coach too. I wish them (you) all of luck!

- Measure drift speed using full thrusters
- Estimate wind & current limits to be potentially encountered by thrusters – or current...

Video Pilot Boat Capsize Test

published on 13 December 2019

posted on YouTube by "Marine Online"
Capsizing or keeling over occurs when a boat or ship is turned on its side or it is upside down in the water. The act of reversing a capsized vessel is called righting. If a capsized vessel has enough flotation to prevent sinking, it may recover on its own if it is not stable inverted. Vessels of this design are called self-righting.
