One of the world-wide organisations that the new cruising sailor quickly gets to learn about is the Seven Seas Cruising Association, which has been around for over 50 years.

But are you aware of the 'Seven Seas U', the online teaching arm of the association?

This is the place where you can add to your cruising knowledge at home, through the miracle of the webinar.

There are many different skills covered, and no matter where you are in the world, all you need is the internet.


What's a webinar? With today's cutting edge technology SSU instructors can offer live seminars on the web, allowing participants to actively engage in a class. Depending on where you are in the world, the only disadvantage is that you might find that a course is at a strange time in your country!

Safety at Sea, Watermakers, Medical Issues, Electronics, SSB/Ham Radios, Homeschooling, Women’s Issues, Sail Trim, Pets Aboard, Diesel Engines, Communication, Writing for the Boating Market, Refrigeration, Alternative Energy
