Alaska Marine Safety Education Association (AMSEA) will offer a 10-hour fishing vessel safety and drill conductor course in Juneau on Wednesday February 15 at the Bill Ray Center at UAS – Room 201.
This course meets the U.S. Coast Guard training requirements for commercial fishing vessels. It is available FREE to commercial fishermen thanks to funding from National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and a support contract for training services from the U.S. Coast Guard.
Participants practice hands-on in the water and on a vessel, with emergency equipment that should be onboard any commercial fishing or other sizeable vessel — PFDs, life rafts, immersion suits, EPIRBs, fire extinguishers, and practice emergency procedures like man overboard, abandon ship, fire fighting and flooding control.
Pre-registration is required, or we may cancel the class due to under enrollment. Those wanting to register should contact AMSEA in Sitka at 907-747-3287 or
