What sort of training did the crew undergo before their expedition?
Advertisements
Solution
The crew started with some theoretical courses on navigation, communication, and weather prediction. Classroom courses were different from sailing outside. So, they were given hands-on training, like, how to repair things and how to deal with emergencies, when the weather is rough, during medical needs, and training needing tactical aspects as well. They underwent their basic sail training courses in Mumbai at the Indian Naval Waterman ship Training Centre (INWTC), and at various schools in the southern naval base in Kochi. They even sailed on INSV Mhadei to Mauritius in 2016 and 2017 and back and also to Cape Town in December 2016.
