RYA Cruising News |
YOU'RE PART OF IT! |
|
|
|
Welcome to the September issue of Cruising News |
|
|
|
In this issue RYA Cruising Manager Stuart Carruthers looks at growing concerns that ships are filtering out AIS Class B transmissions from small craft.
If you have cruised either through or around a wind farm in the UK then please take some time to complete our Wind Farm Survey. Your experiences are important in ensuring the on-going provision of safe passage through wind farms.
Continuing our series on spinnakers, Simon Jinks takes us through the spinnaker hoist, trimming and the drop.
We provide advice on buying new seacocks and how to keep them in good working order.
Lastly, follow Sam Llewellyn as he goes in search of some quieter cruising.
