Preparing Your Boat for Offshore

There are significant differences between coastal sailboats and those venturing offshore.  The process of upgrading your coastal boat to be safe and functional on long offshore passages can be daunting.  Which upgrades are essential and which are just nice to have?

This one day workshop with Norm & Beth Cooper breaks down the boat preparation process for each area of the boat ranging from below the water line to electronics and communication to key safety systems.  A total of 12 areas will be examined.  The content has been updated to include the latest trends and technologies in use by cruisers today.

The course will include hundreds of photos and illustrations.  Norm & Beth will also have lots of equipment on hand such as storm sails, their ditch bag, EPIRB, offshore med kit and even a folding bike.
