These University courses are held two days prior to Trawler Fest; they are designed to empower you with the skills you need to cruise safely and successfully with maximum fun factor.   Make the most of this opportunity to get to know your instructors  and course leaders over lunches, dinners and cocktails hours – just because the course if over doesn’t mean you still don’t have access to gain knowledge from NW instructors, seasoned captains and couples who have sea story adventures – and their still together today to talk about.

Seminars: Presented by experts in the marine industry and seasoned cruisers with experiences to share, educate and teach the techniques to be a self-sufficient, well-informed boater, and familiarize yourself with new cruising grounds. All the seminars are educational, inspiring, and very entertaining – you will be inspired to stretch your sea legs.
