VSTEP is a leading innovator of simulation solutions that enable maritime learning, enhance training effectiveness, cultivate essential skills, advance safety, and promote sustainability.
We are working a Mooring Course covering:
- Mooring fundamentals
- Approaching the berth
- Handling environmental factors like wind and current
- Precise vessel control
- Mooring between other vessels
Suitable to build your foundation or refine your skills. Coming soon!
