CPS-ECP is Launching a Monthly Webinar Series

Seminar

May 14, 2020

We’re launching an exciting new webinar series for people who want to brush up on their boating skills or explore a new interest. Our volunteers have been developing this collection of informative webinars and will be bringing them to your living room, cottage, boat or office by offering them online.

Webinars are not new to CPS-ECP; over the years many Squadrons have developed their own successful webinars to satisfy a local need. We’re now offering some of these as monthly webinars at 8pm Eastern Time for everyone to enjoy. We’ll cover subjects such as Automatic Identification System, Environment, Weather, Paddling and traditional subjects like Tides, Charting and Celestial Navigation.

Each webinar will be presented by our experienced boaters for an hour with time for you ask your questions. The cost is $30 for non-members and $25.50 for members. Each attendee will also receive an ePub copy of the webinar booklet.

Here’s the schedule:

I reach for the VHF to radio the lockmaster in charge of Erie Canal’s Lock 32 dead ahead. Our boat spins gently in the current like a maple key in a mud puddle.

“This is Onondaga,” I say. “Headed westbound and requesting passage.”
