TECH TIP - Miniature LED cabin light. 

SUBJECT 1 - Ian MacIvor to give us an informal talk on Sunglasses. Ian is a dinghy sailor, but we'll forgive him for that. He is retired from the Canadian Navy and now is in charge of NAIT's Optical program. 

SUBJECT 2 -  Leo Lambert to discuss west coast boat ownership as it pertains to placing it in a charter fleet. Leo has had his Catalina in charter for 4 years now to reduce the cost of sailing. This is a perfect follow up to Nuno's discussion from last month. Now you can hear the inside scoop from an owner's perspective.
