JRCC Curacao SAR training

The IAMSAR Solutions team completed another Search and Rescue training session with the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre in Curacao. This is our third year training this organization via a multitude of courses. The Maritime Search Planning (MSP) course is a follow-up to the SAR Mission Coordinator (SMC) course; students learn how to calculate drift and the movements of objects in the water using both manual and computerized method. This ensures JRCC Curacao personnel determine the most optimized search area for persons in trouble within their area of responsibility. Our instructor Mr. Derek Niles is a seasoned Canadian Coast Guard and Royal Canadian Navy maritime SAR Mission Coordinator with decades of experience in maritime SAR both at the the JRCC level and also on the water performing searches under difficult conditions. The best instructor for the best possible training remains our motto. Our excellent relationship with JRCC Curacao continues!
