What to expect

The objective of this course is to familiarise the participants with navigating in ice-covered areas including specific problems that come with it. Countries having to deal with ice navigation, urge to implement IMO guidelines in a course and certify participants. For those regularly sailing in ice-covered waters demands become more and more stringent, especially the Polar regions press for better education concerning this kind of specialised navigation.
