FREE November 11th: Tropical Weather for the Winter Boater

Weather for the Winter Boater

Oct 8, 2020

Many boaters like to spend all or part of their winters sailing in tropical waters, and no doubt wonder what sort of weather they might encounter. The meteorology behind winter weather in the Tropical Zone is very much different from that which we experience here in the mid-latitudes. This seminar gives us a quick review of mid-latitude weather, and then explains the differences that we would find in the tropics, and why they are different.

This seminar will be presented by our experienced boaters with time for you ask your questions. Each attendee will also receive an ePub copy of the seminar booklet.

Space is limited, book your spot today!

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
