 Maritime Professional Training's S.M.A.R.T.® Center


Believe it or Not, it's a Simulator.

Maritime Professional Training's S.M.A.R.T.® Center is the world's most advanced privately owned maritime simulator. But if the word "simulator" makes you think of simple graphics on small screens, controlled by a computer keyboard and mouse, think again. S.M.A.R.T.® Center consists of three fully authentic bridges. The flagship, M/V Endeavor, features a 22' x 20' pilothouse with a 325 degree view, complete engine gauges and display panels, bow and stern thrusters, and much more. The realism and sensation of motion are dramatic. Bring your sea legs.
