To be followed on 23/2 by a short 'sail in company', destination dependent on prevailng weather at that time. Call 'Moonshadow Star' Ch16 on arrival.
An informal lunch is to be held at CA House, hopefully a repeat of our successful FIRST meeting last year, all Blue Water & CA Members welcome. We aim to swap information, talk about our experiences and help those wanting to set off for the first time. This could be especially helpful for those members joining ARC 2011 or crossing the Atlantic this winter.

In Carlisle Bay, Barbados several of the boats at anchor belonged to CA members who had independently crossed the Atlantic in December 2009 and stopped in Barbados to visit the island and break their voyage before going on to the main Caribbean island chain.
