Cruising 2011

The NFCC is looking forward to an exciting cruising experience this year. All of our local cruising events will be centered around the full moon! I am also working on some cruising memorabilia such as shirts for cruisers and cruising music for our events.

When participating in a North Florida Cruising Club cruise, which may involve sailing in company, a skipper is responsible for preparing his/her own passage plan, and is responsible for the safety of his/her crew, including any children or young adults, whether or not they are accompanied by their parents or guardians. The decision on whether it is safe and reasonable to put to sea, or remain at sea, remains the responsibility of the skipper.
