This session of the Cruisers Club Roundtable series will discuss the all-important topic of emergencies at sea and how to deal with them. Our own sailing instructor Eugenie Russell will be the moderator. She has actually experienced what she will be talking about; a few years ago the boat she was skippering was sunk by a collision with a whale, and thanks to careful preparation of the boat and crew, there was a safe and happy ending to the story.

Open to all interested cruisers, from coastal to blue water, cross-ocean cruisers, or even boaters who don't venture to faraway shores, these panels are designed to address topics of interest to a broad swath of yachtsmen. And yes, non-boaters are welcome, too!
