Week in Review
|
|
Our first week on the training
vessel T/V Kings Pointer was exciting for all of us. Many found it to be
their first sea experience and certainly the size of the Kings Pointer
opened many eyes! The trip took us down the East River and along the south
coast of Long Island, passing by New York City at sunset. In addition to
this experience, we practiced our ship handling skills on the Growler and
on the RHIBs (rigid hull inflatable boats) doing man overboard drills,
charting, navigation, and tide/current calculations.
