Enquiry Service

The CA Information Centre welcomes enquiries from CA Members. We aim to answer all enquiries as soon as possible, and to provide accurate and appropriate responses.

Fill in the enquiry form to submit your query.

Alternatively, via telephone/letter/fax to the librarian. The Information Centre is open to CA Members for personal visits and telephone enquiries during these times.

A sample of enquiries which have been received within the last six months is available online.

Notice Board

A collection of recent documents on various aspects of cruising.

CINs

The Cruising Information Notes, (previously known as Harbours, Anchorages & Navigation Notes) edited by John Calver are published three times per year and give a summary of all new information placed in the Regional Files over the last few months. A printed copy of CINs is included with Cruising Magazine.

Cruising Information Reports

Also known as the Regional Files. These are what make the Cruising Association Information Centre unique. They contain a fascinating collection of information sent to us by our members. So if you want a non-official opinion on a marina, or need to know how to get round customs officials in far away ports, the regional files are where you will find the answers.

Almanac Group

This group also scans and checks the Cruising Information Reports carefully. They are responsible for changes to the Cruising Almanac.

Honorary Local Representatives

This network of contacts is available when you are cruising to:

  • provide local information
  • help about local conditions

They also give assistance in checking information in reports.

Their addresses:

  • are in the Yearbook
  • can be accessed online using an interactive map  (members only)
  • their own web pages (members only) which provide extra information.

How do I find information?

Some pointers on resolving a nautical enquiry are available online.
