Whilst the UK was freezing, Emma was cruising the Caribbean. Starting from Barbados and through the Panama Canal.
Emma is currently very busy studying for her science degree and deserved a couple of weeks in the sun. So, what better than organising a chess get together for P&O on their Caribbean Cruise Liner MV Oceana.
P&O - MV Oceana. Cruise Chess Club hosted by Emma.
Some very strong players arrived at the Yacht & Compass lounge aboard the Luxury Liner to join in the Chess get together with Emma Bentley.
Above :- Emma playing Pete Collins, President of Lichfield Chess Club. Pete is the Captain of the Lichfield first team and with an unbeaten record this season. This was Pete's fourth time on the Oceana and states this cruise was first time Chess had ever been offered on the cruise. Farmer Andrew Morgan from Scotland states it certainly made his cruise more enjoyable. The Chess was organised by Emma with P&O last year and she intends to make it a regular feature.
Anyone interested in joining a Chess Cruise next winter please Contact Emma as special rates may be negotiated.

The Luxury Liners daily entertainment newspaper The Horizon advertised the Chess Get Together with Emma Bentley at 3.30pm on sea days.
Three players over 160 grade arrived on the first day and included members of the crew as well as passengers. A Chess Club was immediately formed and a select group of eight members began a holiday cruise to remember.

Chess prodigy Emma Bentley made all the right moves when she won the U11 All England Gold Championship. Emma claimed the crown at Nottingham when she competed against the country's most talented girl players. The triumph followed on from last year's success in the same competition at U10 level. Emma (11), from Wingerworth, began playing chess three years ago and has come along way since she first competed in the Woodseats Cup in Sheffield. Last year she flew to the USA and won the World Open Girls U11 Championship at the prestigious Las Vegas Chess Festival.
Emma competes regularly in the Four Nations Chess League as a member of
the Poisoned Pawns team. Academically, Emma is also extremely talented. A home
schooled student , she has just taken her mathematics GCSE, five years ahead of
schedule.
There was more success for Emma last weekend when a late
call-up saw her make her home debut for the England U18s in the Faber Cup
against Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Emma drew her four matches in the under
18's as England won the trophy.
