Friday, November 12 – Sunday, November 14, 2021

The New York Yacht (NYYC) and the Cruising Club of America (CCA) announce a three-day intensive medical seminar for members of the CCA and NYYC, to take place at Harbour Court (NYYC) in Newport, RI., Friday, Nov. 12 to Sunday, Nov. 14, 2021.

Run under the auspices of Wilderness & Medical Associates International, the seminar is taught by medical professionals who are also offshore sailors. It is designed for those who race or cruise in waters beyond helicopter range and has received significant positive reviews from U.S. Sailing and other authoritative bodies. It will qualify successful participants for the medical component of the Newport-Bermuda Race and the NYYC Transatlantic Race. We also expect that it will be sanctioned for fulfilling the medical requirement for most or all offshore ocean races globally.

There will be a small, limited enrollment. We suggest early registration.
