Experience Days Attractions: Ever wondered what it’s like to be a real ship captain? Well, here’s your chance to find out! Enjoy a fun and informative ninety minutes inside the ‘Full Mission Bridge Simulator’—the South Coast’s largest ship simulator, used to train real Navy personnel and ship captains. Used for seafarer training since 2009, the Fareham-based simulator is now open to the public. It features several high-definition 4K screens providing stunning wraparound visuals. On the bridge, you’ll find authentic controls and navigation equipment—including live radar and ECDIS systems. This technology can transport you all over the world, to real-life locations and scenarios where details, like scenery and sea depth, are all faithfully represented. What’s more, you can choose what sort of vessel you want to pilot—whether it’s a cruise ship, tanker, dredger or speed boat! Friendly staff are on hand to guide you through a variety of manoeuvres, games and challenges that’ll test your nautical problem solving and teamwork skills. That’s right, every skipper needs their crew, so why not make it a family day out? The ship simulator experience in Fareham makes a unique gift experience for budding seafarers and curious landlubbers. Keep things shipshape with an Experience Days voucher, today!
