Advanced Shiphandling in Manned Models The USCG approved Advanced Shiphandling in Manned Models course is primarily for experienced shiphandlers such as pilots and OICNW. This is the only manned model program in North America and the only USCG approved program in the world. Participants will hone their shiphandling skills including: anchoring, docking, undocking, slow speed maneuvering, experiment with movement of the pivot point, advance and transfer, passing in narrow channels, shallow water effect, wind effect, thruster work and much more. The program can be tailored to the specific needs of your company or organization.  .jpg) Click here to learn more about Advanced Shiphandling in Manned Models  .jpg) Click Here to View the 2009 Advanced Shiphandling in Manned Models Schedule For the student who is preparing to obtain his/her senior level deck license we are authorized to complete all seventeen assessments required as part of the advanced shiphandling portion of the STCW requirements.
