Australian Maritime College / Rotary Presentations

The morning began with a tour of the Australian Maritime College. It was amazing to learn about all of the different aspects of training that this community provides to the industry.

This is essentially a wind tunnel for boats. It a pool designed with a wave machine and infrared cameras to study the effects of water and waves on hull designs. The yellow hulls in the background are models in various testing stages.

The college also has an environmental study project that focuses on marine life and sustainability.




After hour tour we met with the Central Launceston Rotary club for our first group presentation. Later that evening we had another presentation which was a joint meeting of 3 Rotary clubs.
