Join us on Tuesday, 21st February to hear John Allen, Operations Training Manager with the RNLI talk about the history, tradition and present day operation of the RNLI.
The RNLI has saved more than 139,000 lives since it's foundation in 1824, against a background of major technical developments and social change. In 1891, the first RNLI street collection was held in Manchester. The 20th century saw the RNLI continue to save lifes through two world wars. The lifeboats moved from sail and oar power to petrol and diesel, and the fisrt women joined their crews. Recent years have seen the indroductionof RNLI lifeguards and the first lifeboat station on an inland waterway.

The crew of Concord cruised to The Baltic from the UK in 2003 and spent five seasons investigating the coasts of Denmark, Baltic Germany, Sweden, Latvia, and Estonia. They then put their boat on a truck and sent it by road to Slovenia on the Adriatic. Three seasons later, having sailed into Venice and visited the whole coastline of Croatia, they have put down roots for the time being at an island near Zadar.
Stuart Bradley, the curent CA President, is Concord's skipper and he will provide a flavour of what it's like to cruise in both of these major cruising regions. He will also cover practical information about preparing a boat for longer term cuising and road transport.
If you have any questios about the CA or want to provide feedback to the President, now's your chance! We are sure there will be something of interest for everyone in this illustrated presentation and we're hoping for a capacity attendance.
