The venue will be the Shelter Island Marina in the meeting room above Tugboat Annie’s Pub.  Access to the Standards as well as TP1332 will be available through www.RuleFinder.net.   WiFi is available so bring your laptop!

The first day is targeted at industry with Transport Canada Marine Safety personnel attending the second day, though accommodation can be made on either day if needed.
