Offshore Pathways | Information Evening Series
Description
The best offshore sailors didn't start offshore. They started somewhere else. Why don't you start here?
Six evenings. Six topics. A panel of experienced offshore sailors sharing what they know — from first-hand stories to the technical knowledge that keeps you and your crew safe out there.
Whether you're curious about offshore racing or ready to make your next move, this series is designed to give you the foundation to do it properly.
Sessions run from 1830 to 1930hrs at the CYCA Clubhouse, upstairs, and are open to everyone — Members, sailors from other clubs, and anyone who's ever looked at the horizon and wondered what's out there.
