Twenty – one boat operators from the Annai- Rupununi area are now better equipped to
ply their trade, given their recent participation in a training exercise hosted by Conservation International, the Guyana Tourism Authority and the Maritime Administration Department (MARAD).
According to a release from MARAD, the three entities partnered to provide training and certification for boat operators in the Annai-Rupununi area. The training and certification programme was conducted by MARAD at Bina Hill in the Annai area.
Participants were drawn from Surama, Apoteri, Yakarinta, Kwatamang, Crashwater, Rewa, and Aranaputa Villages located in the Annai area.
On July 17, 2014, at the end of the training, twenty-one (21) successful participants were awarded with certificates of competency to operate as boat captains under the Licensing of Ships Regulations, 2001.
The Maritime Administration Department has said that it is committed to promoting maritime safety throughout Guyana.
“The Department’s effort in the Annai- Rupununi area will now empower boat operators to legally ply their trade and enhance their income earning potential, particularly in the tourism sector,” the release stated.
