The Sail Canada Offshore Racing Programs Committee are pleased to feature sessions on both Friday and Saturday at the AGM and Conference on October 24-25th in Victoria, BC.

Sessions will include an introduction to the Canadian Offshore Sailing Committee followed by an open discussion amongst offshore race organizers.

Eric Holden, Champion of the Clipper Round the World Race, will kick off the day on Saturday with a presentation on boat and crew preparation for an offshore race.

The second offshore session of the day will include open discussions regarding Race organization and Special Regulations. The Offshore Special Regulations are a great resource for equipping cruising boats for safer offshore passages. Join discussions on where to find the best resources for coastal and offshore sailing.
