“Based around the concepts of the courses within PMI Phase 2, students will use classroom knowledge and apply it within the simulator to gain experience by applying these concepts on board.”

Got to take a containership into San Francisco while dodging sailboats, dinner cruises and a cruise ship docking at pier 39. I really appreciate now how useful a voyage plan is, and how small San Francisco Bay can feel when you have a 37′ keel depth.
We did charting along the way, dealt with heavy seas, did some barge work and lot’s of calls to VTS.
