February 14th - Simon Rowell: Weather at Sea
This is an all day course, starting at 0930, finishing around 1630 with a few breaks along the way. Please email socialsec@stmawessailing.co.uk to book.
It is aimed at sailors who want to learn more about weather from a global to a local scale.
No prior RYA qualifications are required, if you've been rained on a lot and can look at a synoptic chart without breaking into a sweat then that'll do nicely.
Cost to members - none. And there'll be a copy of "Weather at Sea" as the course notes for everyone.
"As a qualified RYA Shore based instructor, I was lucky enough to attend one of Simon Rowell's courses which transformed my understanding of weather, and I have been using that knowledge to pass on to classes for many years.
I was delighted to find that he's also written and published this book which is a great addition to the cruising weather toolbox. Well done Simon"
