The CA’s patron, Sir Robin Knox-Johnston, visited the CA stand during the Southampton International Boat Show.

Whether it’s a river entrance, a panoramic harbour view or a hidden gem from your anchorage, your photos on CAptain’s Mate bring reports and locations to life, making it the award-winning app we all rely on.
As you return from your sailing this season, or if you are still out exploring, please upload some of your favourite photos?
For October’s CAptain’s Mate of the Month, we take you to Saltstone anchorage, a serene spot near Salcombe on the southwest coast of the UK. While Salcombe is a well-known and beautiful destination, it can get busy, especially during peak season.
If you are looking for a quieter alternative, venture a little further upstream into the Kingsbridge Estuary, where you’ll find Saltstone at the entrance to Frogmore Creek. The anchorage offers good holding in sandy mud and is well sheltered.
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.
The annual Cruising Association’s annual Photo Competition is the perfect opportunity to showcase moments from your cruising adventures this season.
Whether you have captured breathtaking landscapes, nature around you or moments on the water, we want to see your journey through the lens. Entries to the 2024 Photo Competition can be made online between 1 October 2024 through until 31 December 2024.
The CA’s annual Log Competition is a cherished tradition, dating back to 1910 with the first awarding of The Love Cup. Celebrating the best cruising logs of the past season, the competition offers CA members a chance to win prestigious trophies across multiple categories.
Entries for the 2024 Log Competition can be made between 1 October to 31 December 2024, with winners announced in early 2025.
Repeats every week every Monday and every Friday 5 times. Also includes Thu Oct 17 2024, Fri Oct 18 2024, Fri Oct 25 2024.
