Nautical Brigade of Dunkirk Advanced Sea Training

2022-12-232022-12-23 Karel Overlaet, Medianaut

The Dunkirk nautical brigade (National Police DDSP59) wanted to improve its technical skills in terms of navigation for its security missions, surveillance in the port of Dunkirk, on the SEVESO sites, intervention in the context of the fight against immigration clandestine, etc.

On the OLM program: reading and analysis of the passage of waves, on-board electronic management, group cohesion and hardening through evolution in an anxiety-provoking environment.

I’ve published another video about this kind of formation.

“Our experience from building race and military vessels ensures that you are well prepared to challenge the sea and your driving skills to achieve your goals. We believe that the pilot’s fitness should be the limiting factor, not how the vessel is built.”

Team Zulu has an impressive background in composite manufacturing and are at the forefront in building high-performance boats for individuals, racing teams and police/military.

For such usage Ullman seats were chosen. Check out these videos for more Ullman Seats.
