THIS IS A HIGH-RISK COURSE

To provide the student with specialized training in the employment and operation of a Patrol Craft in littoral/coastal environments.

The course will consist in nine weeks of comprehensive classroom and underway small craft coastal operations instruction utilizing 42’ patrol boats equipped with diesel engines. The training includes standard operation procedures to conduct day and night tactical waterborne craft operations utilizing onboard electronics, night vision, GPS and RADAR systems. Additional topics include introduction to computerized navigation, navigation rules, aids to navigation, plotting, piloting, dead reckoning, over the horizon navigation (day and night), principles of communications, weapons safety and employment, rules of engagement, mission planning, maritime interdiction operations, insertions and extractions, board and search, close air support and a final Field Training Exercise (FTX) in combination with the Patrol Officer’s Communications course.

This course is designed for junior officers and senior enlisted personnel. In addition to the general prerequisites, students should be familiar with small craft operations and be in good physical conditions. NAVSCIATTS will issue all students the necessary safety and training equipment. Students are required to bring at least one set of boos and two camouflaged uniforms. This course is tentatively scheduled to begin in October 2010.
