Dear SW Section Member,

As you will know from the September Newsletter we have a rather special treat for us all next month, we are very pleased to say that for our first event of the winter season we have a rather eminent speaker, Paul has given the Hanson Lecture at CA House and has spoken to several other Sections, we are very glad he is willing to travel west by train not sea this time!

Paul is a long time member of the CA, writer, broadcaster and sailor of more than 30 years, Paul participated in 2003 Azores and Back Race single-handed as well as the Singlehanded Transatlantic Race in 2005 in a Victoria 38. In 2011/12 he fulfilled a dream, he undertook the long trek to Cape Horn, at the southernmost tip of South America, remote and inhospitable, this is the ultimate seafarer’s destination: the sailor’s equivalent of scaling Mount Everest, he will be talking about his experiences of off shore and ocean cruising.

We will start with coffee and biscuits at 10.45 am, the talk will be from approximately 11.15-12.30, lunch will be provided by Delicious Delights and will be delicious, we will have the second part of the talk and questions from 13.30-14.45, we will close at 15.00, the cost will be £15.00pp. At some point there will be a brief discussion about the SW and Lyme Bay Sections.
