cruising discounts

[classacitizen]

Hi can anyone recommend a club or association similar to the ocean cruising club. That has all the benefits,primarily discounts at most marinas.Where you don't have to be nominated by nelson to join or are required to have sailed around the world in reverse?

Can't find anything for mere mortals starting out?!


regards
