Turpin’s Tips on Worldwide Chartering – Tonight

Whether you often take yacht charter vacations to exotic locations, or simply dream about doing so, we urge you to join us at 7 p.m. tonight at Tiburon’s Corinthan YC for a fun and informative talk by Latitude 38’s Managing Editor Andy Turpin. (Doors and no-host bar at 6:30 p.m.)

His topic: And Insider’s Tips on Worldwide Chartering. A lifelong sailor, Andy has been involved in international yacht chartering for nearly 30 years. During the decade he spent in the Virgin Islands, chartering became one of his journalistic specialties, and during his 20 years with Latitude 38 he has written about virtually every sailing vacation destination on the planet.

Accompanied by a digital slide show, Andy’s talk will give an overview of charter possibilities worldwide with a focus on bareboats. He’ll share cultural insights and travel lessons learned during decades of chartering in a variety of exotic locations. Admission is FREE, but please RSVP online or call 415-435-4771.

And if you’re in Southern Cal this week, be sure to check out Richard Spindler’s talk at the Cal YC, Friday, August 3. Always entertaining, Spindler will touch on many topics associated with his 35 years publishing Latitude 38, including why there are so many typewriters at the bottom of Clipper Basin Three in Sausalito.
