Seafood and Maritime Training (SMT) was honoured to take part in this year’s Australian Wooden Boat Festival, joining Seafood Industry Tasmania at the ‘Gotta Love Tassie Seafood’ tent.

As part of the event, SMT set up one of our Vessel Simulators, giving festival participants the chance to navigate a vessel through Sydney Harbour. Many participants successfully completed the course, while others had a bit of fun steering into the harbour, the bridge, or even dry land! The simulator proved to be a popular attraction, drawing in a steady stream of visitors eager to take the helm and learn more about maritime operations.
