First Class Sailing course won in September’s ‘Refer a Friend’ prize draw

Throughout the spring and summer sailing season, every CA member who refers a friend to join the Cruising Association is entered into a monthly prize draw.

Congratulations to CA member Howard Sheppard, the winner of September's 'Refer a Friend' draw! Howard will receive a Yacht Electrical and Marine Systems course worth £250 from First Class Sailing.

September Refer a Friend prize draw from First Class Sailing

Howard commented, "I have never won a draw before so I am very, very pleased. Thank you for a wonderful surprise. My motto to my wife always is that ‘I don’t know what I can do unless I try’ and at sea you don’t always have help to hand. I have been sailing for many years with my wife and daughters and undertaking a course like Yacht Electrics and Marine Systems I am hoping can help us sail more safely."

Join In - Refer a Friend

The CA’s 'Refer a Friend' programme runs year-round, giving members the opportunity to invite friends to join and enjoy a 20% discount on their first year of annual membership when paying by Direct Debit. From April to September, we enhance this popular initiative with a monthly prize draw.

Help us grow the cruising community by introducing your friends to the CA. For every new member you refer, you will receive a £20 voucher* as a token of our appreciation. The voucher can be used for purchases in the CA shop and be spent on cabin accommodation at CA House.

Additionally, our prize partners are CA Marine Discount partners, providing members with valuable discounts on a wide range of products. Members can access these discounts by logging into your account and going to www.theca.org.uk/discounts.

The monthly prizes will kick off again in April 2025.
