COURSE DESCRIPTION: The Master Boatman – CAP2 – is the reference figure in the management of a shipyard’s job order, both for the construction of new yachts and in refits; the ‘Master Boatman’ works alongside the project manager, the shipyard manager where present and the shipowner or his representatives. He is familiar with and applies programming and control techniques using digital tools for order management and interfaces with work teams to coordinate time and results, as well as assessing the level of quality performed, which is necessarily high in view of the fact that most nautical products belong to the luxury sector.
He also has good knowledge in the field of on-board plant engineering and ship mechanics.
