EU hands over two patrol boats to Ghana Navy to boost maritime security

The European Union (EU) has handed over two Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats (RHIBs) to the Ghana Navy under the Support to West Africa Integrated Maritime Security (SWAIMS) Programme to strengthen the country's maritime security operations.

According to the Ghana Navy, the training is expected to enhance the operational readiness of personnel and improve the Service's capacity to safeguard Ghana's maritime domain and contribute to security in the Gulf of Guinea.

The training, delivered by instructors from the Portuguese Navy under the EU SWAIMS Programme, equipped Ghana Navy personnel with practical and technical skills in boat handling, navigation, seamanship, maritime safety and operational procedures.
