The CA hosts new North West Roadshow

by Peta Stuart-Hunt 10 Oct 2018 09:04 PDT 10 November 2018

The Cruising Association (CA) is organising a one-day North-West Roadshow for members and non-members on Saturday 10th November at the National Waterways Museum in Ellesmere Port, Cheshire.

Topping the bill and rounding off a packed and informative line-up of talks is sailing journalist, author and broadcaster, Tom Cunliffe.

The schedule of speakers includes Vyv Cox on 'Things which can ruin your day at sea'; Julian Dussek takes us 'Cruising the French Inland Waterways'; 'Cruising the Biscay Coast of France' is the title of Judith Grimwade's presentation, and all three build in time for Q&A sessions.

Derek Lumb is presenting cruising information on behalf of the CA's Cruising Information Development Group (CIDG), followed by an Open Forum discussion. After an early buffet supper, Tom Cunliffe, in his own inimitable style will deliver a talk entitled 'Ice with Everything'. We can only guess at its content!

Anyone interested in attending needs to book separate tickets for the Afternoon session, the Evening session or both, plus the buffet, depending on preference. The booking also provides free entry to the Museum (open 1000-1700) which also has its own cafe.
