Vancouver Island Cruising Experience (VICE) - Trawlers

Departure Port - Victoria, BC

28 Jun 2015   

Members Free / Non-Members N/A

BCA is most often considered as an organization for offshore sailors, but there is a small, dedicated group of members who own power boats or trawlers.  And for possibly the first time ever, the 2015 VICE participants are divided into two groups;  the first group to depart Victoria on June 28 will be the trawlers.

VICE is a multi-day offshore trip is a shakedown cruise that gives BCA skippers a chance to test their boats and themselves – cooking, eating, sleeping, using offshore systems, communicating and keeping watch at sea, all of which are critical skills needed when offshore. After departing Victoria, boats head out into the Pacific for 3 -4 days.

Registration is now closed for 2015, but information about VICE can be found in this Currents article and on the BCA website.
