The training focused on ensuring that the fishermen are aware of safety measures that can assist with saving their lives during difficult times at sea. The training became necessary following the murder of two fishermen due to piracy.

The fishermen were exposed to training as it related to safety in and out of the boats, the proper utilization of the life jackets and their importance in saving lives and the use of flares to assist with them being located at sea.

The training session by the coast guards officials was necessary as the sea and the ocean have become due to the tropical storm grace. All fishermen participated in the session with great enthusiasm as they had so much to learn from it, including using a flare in case of help, wearing life jackets and more.
