"Zhenghe," Atlantic (CNS) -- The PLA naval vessel "Zhenghe," on its current mission of global voyage and drills at sea, arrived at the west coast of North America on Saturday morning, local time.

"Zhenghe" set sail on its Atlantic journey on June 15 after a visit to Spain. The journey became challenging when it ran into hurricane "Chris," but the vessel finally reached the west coast safely after adjusting its route.

Despite the intimidating meteorological conditions and seasickness reactions in both Chinese and foreign trainees, the students have found lots of opportunities to practice new skills on their transatlantic journey and are improving their competence in the mapping and surveying of naval vessel maneuvers, astrofix calculation, and marine meteorological analysis and prediction, commented officer Song Hui.
