Happy New Year everyone. It’s the time of year when many magazines compile their top ten lists. So we decided to make our own list. What conclusion can we draw from 2011’s list of most popular posts on the Women and Cruising Blog? Perhaps only that we women cruisers are a diverse group – as concerned about [...] Events and Seminars
 ¡Hola! I will be offering a SPANISH FOR CRUISERS webinar through Seven Seas U September 26 – October 17 (6 online evening classes on Mondays and Thursdays)!

This is an excellent book and very different from Jimmy Cornell’s more well-known books World Cruising Routes and World Cruising Destinations. A Passion for the Sea is a bit hard to describe because the book is packed with stories, advice and tips from Cornell’s lifetime of cruising. Not only does the author draw [...] Events and Seminars, Women and Cruising Seminar

Pam says: “These popular webinar presentations by Seven Seas Cruising Association are terrific because you can watch them from the comfort of your home or main saloon!

 Did you ever think that one day you would be saying: “Gee, I wish I knew more about diesel engines – and was competent with general engine maintenance and emergency repairs.” …? Who would have thought it?! But I certainly feel more competent and comfortable aboard as I have learned how to change oil, filters, impellers, [...] Books, Websites & Blogs
 We’ve just updated our collection of Gwen Hamlin’s Admirals’ Angle columns with the latest two being about cruisers’ relationship with the water that surrounds them. As a veteran dive instructor, Gwen has good ideas about how to prep your boat and yourselves for safely adding scuba and snorkeling to your voyage, and the Admirals [...] Books, Websites & Blogs
Wow! I just got my copy of Jimmy Cornell’s new World Cruising Destinations this last week – and I am in love with it! I’ve carried Jimmy Cornell’s books aboard my boat ever since I bought my first copy of World Cruising Routes in the late ‘80s. When I was finally lucky enough to have [...] Cruising with Kids, Press Releases

Rich with [...] Books, Websites & Blogs
 In April, Livia Gilstrap wrote Women and Cruising about the Interview with a Cruiser project that she recently started to ask the hundreds of questions she had as she prepared to go cruising.
