After reaching the port and clearing all the remaining formalities which took another 2 hours. Students were allowed to enter the port premises. As the bus went past the various ships students were dumbstruck with the various ships such as “ THORESEN” , “THORFRIENDSHIP” and “HOPE”.
Students were given the permit to see the “UNI CHALLENGE” vessel which arrived a few days back from Singapore. Students were taken one by one on board and were alighted at the alighting point of the ship. The crew showed them the life boats and rescue boats and explained how they were used. Students were further taken to a room in which various technical machines and instruments were kept. Students saw instruments such as the Chronometer, Electromagnetic compass, Binoculars, Telegraph machine etc. Students also saw the survey maps used by them which reminded many of them about their 10th standard geography.
