More than 20 marine surveyors attended the IIMS Certifying Authority training day, held at Portchester Sailing Club on Wednesday 1 October. Participants came from as far afield as France, Spain, Holland and even India.
The day was presented as a workshop with John Excell, John Heath and Fraser Noble (Chairman of the IIMS Certifying Authority) leading the delivery and handling the resulting debate and comments.
The day proved to be long and exhausting, but productive as delegates got their heads around some of the more complex matters relating to the MCA directives and requirements.
