Font size : + / -

The Antipiracy Course was extended to 2 days training (as per IMO model course 3.23) and consists of both theory and practice, including indicative analytical exercises on our Full mission Bridge Simulator. This was the participants can easily understand the ship's vulnerable points and its maneuverability while under pirate attack . Moreover the participants are trained in two different scenarios:

  1. To avoid pirate attack while practising evasive maneuvers using their own vessel.
  2. To attack a vessel themselves while on a pirate skiff. 

Through this approach knowledge is obtained bilaterally, as in real-case scenarios they will be able to act accordingly in order to avoid unpleasant situations. The course is to be approved by Major Flag Administrations and Classification Societies.
