The Royal Canadian Navy Naval Security Team is out on Okanagan Lake for a week-long training in 麻豆精选.
Fredrik Houle is among those training on three defender boats.
Houle says training is simulated as real as possible.
鈥淲e started by giving a brief in the morning to all the crew to make sure they know all their tasking for the entire day.鈥�
Each defender has a naval communicator and a cockswain.
The team will be here all week training on the water.
鈥淔or our team we always want to train in good weather and in bad weather. That鈥檚 why we have a navigator on board who will communicate with the boat cockswain what is in front of us,鈥� Houle said. 鈥淲e have all our GPS and our radar on ship that can provide [help in] those kinds of problems.鈥�
A recruiter tent is also set up to provide information to anyone interested.
Friday will be a rest day for the team before the convoy hits the road again Saturday morning.
