More about the CYCC
|
We
-
co-ordinate the production of sailing directions or pilotage information,
provide publicity and arrange discounts for members;
-
urge cruising yachtsmen to provide feedback on navigational, port and marina
changes to member clubs so that Sailing Directions can be updated;
-
exchange information on a wide range of pilotage, regulatory and environmental
issues affecting UK and European cruising;
-
liaise with the Lighthouse Authorities, the
Hydrographic Office, and the
Royal Institute of Navigation regarding
developments affecting the interests of cruising yachtsmen. We maintain strong
liaison with, but independence from, the Royal
Yachting Association;
-
provide representation to the various environmental agencies. Of particular
concern is impending environmental and safety legislation threatening the
freedom of yachtsmen;
-
provide web pages for member clubs encouraging yachtsmen to join these to
learn from, and enjoy the fellowship of, other cruising yachtsmen.
