standard command protocol to communicate with the helmsman. DYNAV SIM allows operators to push them- selves beyond their current limits using simulation, similar to ß ight training. DYNAV ADV increases the tempo and introduces specialist applications such as LCAC and riv- erine operations. DYNAV MIL deals with poorly charted coastlines, more complex environments and the need to interact with C4i systems plus operate with other craft, aircraft and land based assets. The standardized DYNAV System can enhance opera- tional effectiveness and support interoperability. In 2007, US Coast Guard Vice Admiral Parker said, ÒNew interna- tional training standards are required that address not just the competence of fast boat handling in the vicinity of other platforms, but the capability to be interoperable with other organisations and agencies during maritime operations.ÓFRC International Training Director, Jon Hill describes best, perhaps, how DYNAV can be incorporated into a standardized training system for fast boat operations. ÒStandardization For Interoperability (SFI) is a recognized requirement across many professional sectors. The FRC (Fast Response Craft) training and qualiÞ cations system supports effective interoperability between both national and international organizations.Ó John Haynes , AFNI, is Operations Director of FRC International and a presenter of DYNAV and WBV courses. He is a Yachtmaster Ocean and Advanced Powerboat Instructor. Subject matter expertise includes high speed craft consultancy, product development and specialist training.
