Year-round, the CA offers our 'Refer a Friend' programme, enabling members to invite their friends to join the CA community and enjoy 20% off their first year's membership1.
The CA’s focus remains on building a community that values quality advice and connections. Member referrals remain the cornerstone of how we welcome new sailors into the fold.
As a thank you for helping us grow our cruising community, every referring member receives a £20 voucher2. This can be used for purchases in the CA shop or towards cabin accommodation at CA House.
That’s not all! From April to September, members who refer a friend will also be entered into our monthly draw for a chance to win some fantastic monthly prizes. In April, you could win a TeamO Coastal 170N BackTow Lifejacket worth £165.
Upcoming monthly prizes are:
May – a First Class Sailing Diesel Engine Maintenance Course worth £135
June – an EVDS (Electronic Visual Distress Signal) worth £170 from Wescom Group
July – a £150 cleaning bundle from Marine Hygiene
August – a shaped duvet set to include a duvet, duvet cover and 2 x pillowcases worth £150 from Ship Shape Bedding
September – IC-M25EURO Buoyant Marine VHF Radio worth £165 from ICOM
Many of the CA 'Refer a Friend' prize partners are also CA Marine Discount partners, who offer members significant discounts off their products. Members can login to your account and take a look at all the discounts from our partners around the world at www.theca.org.uk/discounts.
