SYC Guest Talk w, Rob & Jo Withers
Blue Water Sailing; what the RYA courses don't tell you
Have you ever dreamed of sailing off into the blue, but wondered how it really works in practice?
Or perhaps youve crossed the Atlantic and found yourself asking… what about the Pacific?
Join Rob and Jo Withers for an inspiring evening of real-world blue water sailing on Friday 20 February. Fresh from completing their second ARC aboard Tintin last year, and with a World ARC voyage via New Zealand already under their belts, they bring hard-won experience from thousands of ocean miles.
Their talk goes beyond the textbooks, exploring the practical realities of long-distance voyaging — the things courses don't always cover — brought to life with stories from the road (and the sea).
After the main talk, there'll be time to swap a tale or two, ask questions, and dig into the nitty-gritty with fellow sailors.
Whether youre planning your first ocean crossing or simply curious about life offshore, Rob and Jo promise an informative, entertaining, and inspiring evening.
