Start Sailing
Whether you've never set foot in a boat or have years of sailing behind you, we offer a training programme with something for everyone - young and old, novice and experienced.
For younger sailors, we offer the Junior Gybe Club, Race Training and Youth Performance Coaching.
For total beginners of any age, we have Open Days where you can go for a short sail with an experienced sailor in one of our club boats.
If you're looking for a structured sailing course, with a qualification at the end, we offer RYA Level 1 for absolute beginners and RYA Level 2 for those wanting to improve and to be able to sail a boat around a course. These are available to anyone aged 16 and above. We also offer a RYA Start Racing and Intermediate Racing course.
For competent sailors we also hold informal race training courses, where you will be given advice on starting sequences, boat handling and racing strategy.
Take a look at our Training Calendar for dates and times of the various courses currently available.
