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.

The event was a fantastic opportunity to engage with the community and showcase the skills and training involved in the seafood and maritime industries.

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.

The simulator was a great way to engage with the community and showcase the skills involved in maritime navigation.
