Comments from the 2007 cruise :
DX Comments:
"S&%#TANA, it was very good!"
"My first time on the CCF cruise, and I really enjoyed it! Presentations
were great with a wide spectrum of interesting topics. Everything together
with the opportunity to meet your friends (and making new friends) is great.
I will certainly join if there's a cruise in 2008!"
"There was a good balance between presentations and time for eyeball qsos."
"Cruise concept is excellent & good value."
"Presentations by experience + number of participants = lots of interaction"
"Keep it mixed - DX/Contest topics and tecnical topics, too."
"Keep on with your good work!!!"
