Safety at Sea
Safety at Sea: One day course - €100
Sat. Mar. 28 (1030-1700)
This course will include a session on how to properly brief a crew and carry out safety checks before going afloat. Whilst the emphasis is on the prevention of accidents including MOB Ð we must know how to react if something goes wrong. The session afloat will concentrate on recovery of MOB and getting personnel aboard from the water. A set of briefing notes for skippers will follow but it is important that each crew have worked out a mechanism for recovery of personnel form the water.

Cruising the Cork and Kerry Coasts.
We are blessed in Ireland with a magnificent coastline - there are very many beautiful places but for my money the best cruising ground is Cork and Kerry. Besides amazing scenery on our coastline there are lots of great ports and safe anchorages full of character. A voyage on this coastline makes for a memorable holiday. This blog explores the coastline from Youghal in East Cork to the north Kerry and the Sahnnon Estuary. I am lucky enough to have sailed these waters for nearly 50 years and I want to share some of my insights and tips............................
