IIMS launches pay per view training videos


IIMS has been publishing Conference and seminar videos on the web site and also available to view freely on its YouTube channel - see https://bit.ly/2c7Vpuz; so that is nothing new. However, IIMS has now launched a Pay Per View section on the website where much longer, in depth training videos can be purchased. By purchasing a video, you get a full copy to keep. The collection will grow, but for now consists of two videos made by IIMS.


Report Writing Online Seminar This three-hour seminar, featuring a lot of new content, brings the art of report writing bang up to date and aims to provide the essential information that a yacht and small craft surveyor needs to consider when gathering the information and then compiling his/her report.

How to conduct a complete mast and rigging survey Using a series of photos, Kim Skov-Nielsen delivers an informative masterclass on the subject of inspecting and surveying masts and rigs using his extensive knowledge, gained over many years. He talks about how to inspect the mast and rigging, when to inspect it, what to expect as you inspect and what specifically to look for and where. He also speaks about how to include the findings and recommendations in the report as well as caveats. In his presentation, Kim touches on all types of rigging from rope to galvanised steel wire to carbon, as well as looking at different types of masts too, whilst reminding surveyors to keep a clear focus on their personal safety.
