Learn to sail with our training scheme run by voluntary Royal Yachting Association approved instructors. We have trained
ages 8 to 80!
The aim of the training courses is to introduce newcomers to the sport of
sailing, to help them learn to sail safely and especially to have fun.
The club uses RYA (Royal Yachting Association) methods, covering levels 1
and 2. Everybody learns at their own pace and other course levels can be obtained
after more experience.
Clothing
The only clothing required to start are a pair of trainers, jeans, a warm
jumper and a waterproof jacket of some kind. If you have one, a wetsuit is
better, and a dry change of clothing to get changed into after sailing (you
may get wet at some stage!). Lifejackets, buoyancy aids and some spray tops
can be provided.
Instructors & helpers
The team of helpers and instructors work on a voluntary basis, they are not paid for their help.
Please help and assist them where possible.
