Sea Survival Program Sail Canada – World Sailing Approved

Sail Canada Sea Survival

 

April 11 2016

Keeping you and your crew safe!

Heading offshore? Planning to do the Susan Hood Race, Lake Ontario 300 or any other exciting adventures that will take you beyond the reach of your dock lines? Making sure that you and your crew are fed, trained and well prepared is top of your list. Now you can offer them the training opportunity of a lifetime. Practice firing off flares, putting out fires, getting into a liferaft and even swimming with all of your gear on. This may just save your life or the life of your crew.

The last thing you ever want to be doing is using your new sea survival skills at sea. We know prevention is the best cure, but just encase….learn and practice how to deal with all the possibilities and how to stay alive when your boat slips out from under you. Protect your family, friends and mates from the worst that can happen.

This Sail Canada – World Sailing approved Offshore Personal Survival Course is designed for racers and cruisers, sailors and powerboaters alike. World Sailing (formerly ISAF) sanctioned for offshore racing and required certification in category 2, 1 and 0 races, this course will keep you well minded and race legal. It is also strongly recommended for Category 3 races such as the Lake Ontario 300.
Course to be held in Oakville
Saturday & Sunday, May 21 & 22, 2016
8 am to 6 pm
$425 + HST

Program will be led by Diane Reid

Spotted! Canadian Boating in Antigua & Barbuda

By Mathew Channer

I wore my Canadian Boating cap everywhere I went in Antigua, for the sun, not for the shout-outs. But I sure received a lot of them.

Antigua Sailing Week is an international regatta that draws sailors of every level and spectators from all over the world. Yet I couldn’t walk across a room without being hailed by a Canadian who was as excited to see my cap as they were to see the racing. I met many who were on their 3rd, 4th and 5th visit.
