Gain knowledge, confidence and learn boating safety during MTAM's 2023 Safety-at-Sea seminars at the U.S. Naval Academy next month, April 1–2.
Part of the seminar is a requirement for racing sailors, and the course offerings expanded years ago to include beneficial safety lessons applicable to any mariner. The portion of the seminar intended for the general boating public is called a Cruising Course, and includes presentations by some of the foremost personnel in the field who have collectively operated vessels for thousands of miles on waters around the globe – as well as share lessons and real-life experiences on such topics as voyage preparation, crew health and emergency medicine, marine weather, safety gear, man-overboard prevention and recovery, electronic navigation and more.
On the second day of the seminar, attendees may choose either hands-on training with life-rafts, tethers and other safety tools in the pool on campus, or attend the Safety for Cruising Couples presentation made possible by the Cruising Club of America.
