On Tuesday, August 14 at 8:00 PM, Seven Seas U presents a FREE webinar on cruising the Windward Islands.

Presented by Bob Osborn, who cruised the islands with his wife Brenda during the 2018 winter season, this webinar is full of practical tips, and favourite anchorages. It will definitely feed your dreams of cruising these beautiful islands and provide practical information as well.

This free webinar is for all who plan or dream to cruise in the Windward Islands.

Bob and Brenda spend much of the 2017-2018 cruising season in the islands and have post-hurricane knowledge about the areas they visited, from Antigua to St. Lucia and back to Antigua for the Classic Boat Regatta.

The only thing better than actually cruising yourself is talking with someone who did so recently, who can share their experiences, photos, and delights. To register for this free webinar, go to ssca.org/dashboard/#/sevenseasu and click on DES113; Cruising to the Windward Islands.
