Advanced preparation of the vessel and crew are paramount in the successful completion of an offshore voyage. In this webinar, Captain Lee Tucker, a physician for over 30 years, discusses appropriate medical preparations to be made prior to embarking on extended voyages. Crew selection strategies, pre-departure crew medical evaluations and the creation of comprehensive offshore medical response kits are discussed in detail. The presentation describes currently available shore-based emergency support services, how to select them pre-departure, and access them once underway. Although not intended as an inclusive review of all medical emergencies afloat, common and potentially catastrophic medical emergencies at sea will be discussed with tactics for their prevention and management.

This was Zanders tricycle. Nathan has decided to do a accidents happen in a scooter and tricycle crash.

An amazing weekend was had by all of the MC38 Fleet out on Pittwater in the Sevenstar International MC38 One Design Championship, John Bacon and his crew on Dark Star, battled it out over the seven races to take home the inaugural Championship Title. Five MC38s took to the starting line on Saturday morning, for some exceptional racing on Pittwater. John Bacon's "Dark Star" took the first race, but saw exactly how quickly the tables could turn in the close racing when Leslie Green steered his crew on "Ginger" to take 1st in the second race. After three windward/leeward races and a short passage race on Day One, "Dark Star" had the lead over Ross Hennessey and his crew on "Ghost Rider" by 4 points, and only 8 points separated the 1st and 5th place. "We were the overnight leaders, with 4 points clear" said John Bacon "we knew that if we came last in the first race on Sunday and Ghost Rider came 1st the regatta would be wide open, and in a self fulfilling prophecy that is exactly what happened. Spinnaker handling is key, we made a mistake and we came last, that's what this racing is all about" Sunday saw more very close racing between the fleet of MC38s with all boats applying the pressure, "Vino", "Ghost Rider" and "Ginger" all taking a 1st place during the day. "We had a solid finish in the second race over Ghost Rider" said John Bacon "the last race everyone was pushing hard, Ghost Rider and Vino had the pressure on, they sailed a brilliant race -- thanks to Ross for putting it to us" The Howard Spencer and his Kiwi team "Menace" enjoyed themselves, having only sailed the MC38 once before, they had a great time and can't wait for the next event. It was a testament to everyone who sailed on the weekend; it was very close sailing, all putting a brilliant show for the spectators that came to watch. In John Bacon's acceptance speech he thanked everyone for coming out and competing, McConaghy Boats, the Sponsors, Royal Prince Alfred Yacht Club and his crew including Cameron Miles who left straight after the presentation for the birth of his third child. It was an incredible sight to see the five boats blasting around. "It is exactly what we dreamed of for the MC38s" commented Jono Morris Managing Director of McConaghy Boats, "Everyone had such a great time on and off the water and we are very pleased to see such a strong fleet and close racing. We had such a range of people competing in the event and everyone came away with a smile on their face, congratulations to everyone who competed, it was such a thrill to watch. The RPAYC did a great job in organising the racing" The MC38 Class is working on the calendar for the next 12 months and expects to see the next race in March next year.

Inland and coastal waters are particularly hazardous to groundings and sinkings due to wind, waves, rocky shoals, submerged obstructions, strong currents, tidal swings of water depth, restricted visibility from fog, rain and darkness, other vessel traffic, shore lights and more. The US Coast Guard and local agencies deploy a comprehensive array of navigational aids including buoys, beacons, lights, dayboards, racons, bells, whistles, gongs, horns and more to assist mariners in safe conduct through these areas in all kinds of weather and traffic conditions. This seminar describes the navigational aids and their meanings, sources for authoritative description of specific Nav Aids in specific locations, and how mariners can acquire the latest change information in their area of interest for use in pre-planning a cruise.

Once seen, it is easy to understand the passion of "umbraphiles" who travel the world to witness this mystical, astronomical event. At Green Island, in the direct path of the eclipse, visitors had front row, uninterrupted viewing for the duration. Dennis Mammana, Night Sky Photographer and Astronomer said on Green Island, "Total eclipses are unlike anything else on this planet. You experience one and it's totally addictive, this is my 14th. It was just superb, beautiful, one of the best..." Seth Shostak, Senior Astronomer Seti Institute in California said enthusiastically, "It's generally said that God put all the interesting astronomy in the southern hemisphere and all the astronomers in the northern hemisphere. Well this time again he has favoured the southern hemisphere! This was a fantastic eclipse... truly incredible." In addition to Green Island, visitors joined a special early morning Wavedancer cruise from Port Douglas while Pro Dive Cairns' special eclipse liveaboard experience combined this special event with some spectacular scuba diving on Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Guests travelled to Green Island with Great Adventures http://www.greatadventures.com.au/
