Drill Conductor Training

FREE Safety Training Offered for Commercial Fishermen in HALF MOON BAY

Alaska Marine Safety Education Association (AMSEA) will offer a 2 - day fishing vessel safety and drill conductor course in Half Moon Bay on March 19 & 20, 2012 at Yacht Club on 214 Princeton Ave, Half Moon Bay. This course meets the U.S. Coast Guard requirements for commercial fishing vessels. It is available FREE to commercial fishermen thanks to funding from the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and a support contract for training services from the U.S. Coast Guard.

Participants practice hands-on in the water and on a vessel, with emergency equipment that should be onboard any commercial fishing or other sizeable vessel — PFDs, life rafts, immersion suits, EPIRBs, fire extinguishers, and practice emergency procedures like man overboard, abandon ship, fire fighting and flooding control.
