World Cruising Club is hosting a series of presentations at boot Düsseldorf 2020. We will explain the route options for ARC/ARC+ and World ARC, plus the safety equipment requirements and other preparation tips. Designed as a "pick 'n mix" day, the presentations are free to attend, and you may select sessions individually, or attend all.
Spaces are limited and pre-registration is essential. As part of the seminar, marine safety experts Ocean Safety will be discussing some of the key items of safety equipment required for the ARC, culminating in a live life-raft demonstration.
