In 2017, Döhle Yachts became the first yacht management company to support cadets enrolled at the prestigious Warsash Maritime Academy. Our newest cadets, Will Mellor and Joe Parrett, have updated us on their progress.
Will: “Having had a successful first sea phase, we were excited to return to college for our first in-person lectures of our cadetship. Within phase 3, we studied Advanced Navigation and Bridge Management modules that build on phase 1, attained a signals certificate, and successfully undertook our ECDIS and NAEST(O) training at the Warsash Maritime Simulation Centre.”
Joe: “In addition to our academic studies, Will and I were pleased to complete our RYA Power Boat Level 2, Personal Watercraft, and Tender Operator courses this phase. It was great to be on the water learning practical skills that will come in use on future ship appointments. Will and I would like to thank Döhle Yachts for this opportunity. We are now looking forward to our phase 4 ship placements and all that the new year brings.”
