Honorary Local Representatives

Strange things, they say, happen at sea. You don't have to put many miles under the keel to find out that it's true. And if those strange things need to be resolved, then the Cruising Association is here to help. Specifically, in the shape of our Honorary Local Representatives (HLRs).

From Aalborg to Ventspils, via Helsinki, Halifax (Nova Scotia) and Hamble, from Vancouver to Durban via Jounieh (Lebanon), Rabat (Morocco) and Mallaig, you'll find a local representative of the Cruising Association. There are more than 50 countries with HLRs, providing a network of support that is, literally, second-to-none. 

The task of the HLRs is to assist CA members in whatever way they can. They help with things like sourcing emergency repairs, finding moorings, securing visas, explaining local customs and bureaucracy, provisioning, land transport and excursions. And if they can't help themselves, they'll know someone who can. They also keep us up-to-date with matters arising in their areas that might concern CA members.

Whether you're cruising around the world, or around the coast, information and help is at hand from the CA.

Note that some are based in the UK, but have extensive local knowledge of overseas cruising grounds.
