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.
