According to the Cruising Association, it is now the biggest UK member association looking after cruising people, overtaking the Royal Naval Sailing Association (RNSA), cruising club, last year.
The Cruising association has plenty of cruising information on its website – 16,000 pages in fact – and runs regular competitions where its members can win prizes. One of these competitions, where the winner could win a set of standing rigging worth £3,000, was launched at this year’s Southampton Boat Show.
A spokesperson for the Cruising Association comments: ‘This year’s SBS has been the best yet in the 40 years the CA has taken a stand.’
