What will I learn?

The Deckhand Course equips you with hands-on skills to work safely and effectively on deck. You will learn proper use of personal protective equipment, tool inspections, and briefings before arrival, followed by practising clear communication, mooring and unmooring methods, and awareness of snap-back risks. Gain confidence in handling cargo, checking lashings, carrying out routine maintenance, rope handling, safety reporting, and record-keeping to help ensure smooth and compliant operations in port right from the start.
