WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN LYSCWG TRAINING REPORT


The Western Mediterranean Large Yacht & Small Craft Working Group met for its annual training event in Palma in late April. The event, which stretched over three days this year, was attended by 20 surveyors across the various days, all of whom agreed that it was one of the best events IIMS had organised on the island of Majorca. John Excell, Chairman of the LYSCWG, said it had been the best event since the resurrection of the group some seven or eight years previous in terms of the breadth and quality of the content. John Walker who co-ordinates IIMS activities on the island for the event agreed; and Mike Schwarz thanked all the presenters for giving their time to share their specialist knowledge.


There were two special highlights worthy of mention. Margaret Green, widow of the late Peter Green, whose ashes were scattered in Palma last year, joined the group for dinner at Celler as Premsa to commemorate the first anniversary. Peter who had been a long-standing member of IIMS was responsible for getting the group together 20 years ago. The second highlight was the practical sea trail on the Saturday.


Thursday morning opened up with a specially prepared two and a half hour training session hosted at the Camber Marine facility, main Volvo Penta dealers on the island. Our hosts presented something of a masterclass about the Volvo Penta IPS engine system.


After lunch it fell to Karen Brain, Matrix Insurance, to speak. Her topic? What is a contract and why surveyors need them. It certainly provided food for thought. Paul Hamill from Tides Marine was on hand to speak about shaft seal systems in great detail. And Karsten Hertrich brought the first day to a close when he presented the Dockmate self- docking system.
