While focused on the Marion Bermuda Race with its comprehensive yet simplified safety requirements, this is about outfitting your cruising / coastal racing boat for offshore passages. It will be valuable to those considering the race but also should be of interest to anyone contemplating expanding their sailing area with anything from overnight runs to significant journeys. “Nothing expands your range like not going into port every night.” – Tom Neale. Bob Kostyla of the Marion Bermuda Race Committee will present a well-developed slide show tailored to this event and a panel of BWSC members and recent race participants can relate their experiences/ strategies in meeting the checklist items. Member Bob Buck, a multi time racer and who will serve as an inspector this year will also contribute. 0945 - 1015 socialize 1015 - 1200 seminar and Q&A Ample pastries, fruit, coffee and juice will be provided Cost: BWSC Members - $14/person All Others - $18/person Note: If paying by check, complete the registration, print the invoice and send the check and the invoice to the address shown.
