Guest Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Don't suppose anyone knows if there is a database of who's done it, when and all that stuff? Like too many things these days you are required to get something no one ever wants to see or be bothered with once you've done it so it gets stuck away in some corner and forgotten about. I've done the course twice but buggered if I can remember when the last time was, I think 3 odd years ago. Surely if it's that important someone must have a list of who, when and who's valid or knot somewhere..... wouldn't they?? Link to post Share on other sites
Grinna 2 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Valid or not KM, I'd recommend a refresher after 3 or so years but suggest you book in with Al Gwyer at Seawise (see ad to the right). The professional Volvo guys go to him and highly recommend his course, he's an ISAF accredited and YNZ preferred trainer and tends to make you think long and hard about your particular safety systems and set up. It is extremely interesting to see the failure rates for safety equipment that you simply assume will do the intended job when required .... very sobering! Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I can assure you no one will be thinking longer or harder about my systems than myself. Sure a refresher is good and that's what I'll need to do but I don't want to waste another entire weekend doing the whole thing all over again. But it seems to be refreshed you have to be current hence the is there a database question. Just out of interest, has anyone every been asked for one of these Certs? Link to post Share on other sites
