Island RIBs attended Cowes Enterprise College on Monday to give a presentation to representatives from the Department for Education and provide expert assistance to the CEC maritime workshop.
The workshop challenged Year 7 Design Technology pupils to design and build a model yacht, considering the different roles involved in the process and encouraging students to think about careers in the marine industry.
The day was a great success, and the pupils will now go on to finish building their yachts, ready for racing in the CEC Sailboat Olympics.
