Horizons Winter Youth Project

Simulator

On Monday 25th January Horizons Youth Group visited Plymouth University and had the chance to watch the wave tank in action in the Coast Lab and also had a go at steering various “ships” in the Ship Simulator. We had a go at mooring the Brittany ferry in Millbay docks, taking a cruise liber in to New York and powerboating around Plymouth Sound.
It was a great chance for our young people to see first-hand the amazing facilities Plymouth University has to offer someone looking at a career in the Marine/Maritime environment.
Our thanks go out to Elaine Budd, the Community Engagement Co-ordinator at Plymouth University, for facilitating our visit.
