Tug Handling – Basic

Our Tug Training courses are provided in partnership with Tug Training & Consultancy whose trainers are highly experienced experts in tugs and towage.

The course takes place in a state-of-the-art simulator but can be combined with practical training on board a tug if the client requires.

The course can be based on either conventional or Azimuthing propulsion as required by the client.

The course will be tailored to the candidate’s experience and will provide both the underpinning theoretical knowledge and practical training for:

• Mooring
• Unmooring
• Sailing ahead and astern
• Turning
• Side stepping
• Emergency stops
• Coping with currents and other relevant aspects
