The WUAA Board approved a training this season on the use of our Chasing M2 Pro Max ROV and our Chasing Gladius.  This will be a single day course that we plan to have in Sheboygan that will consist of an afternoon on-water component that will be held at Sheboygan and an morning classroom component that will be held at the Visit Sheboygan Classroom, 826 S8th St. Attendees will learn how to care for the ROV, how to operate the software, capture video and stills, and stream video online.  Attendees will also learn how to pilot the ROV, avoid entanglements and rescue the ROV if it becomes stuck.  Completion of this course qualifies WUAA members to operate WUAA’s ROV in the presence of a WUAA steward.  We will be renting a large pontoon boat for the on-water component of the course and will have a capacity of 10 participants. Please contact instructor Brendon Baillod if you have questions: baillod@gmail.com. Registration will be available online in May.  There will be a nominal cost of $70 per seat to defray the cost of the boat rental.
