Summer Teen Sailing
An introductory course for new sailors and those beginning to explore the sport. Open to those aged 12+, we will be covering some of the basic principles of sailing and getting everyone out on the water. Topics covered will include:
- Getting your boat ready to go afloat (rigging and launching)
- An understanding of basic wind awareness and considerations when going out sailing
- Basic steering and sail control
- Solo sails across the wind, and working towards sailing around a simple course.
Please come in clothes ready for sailing - a wetsuit is ideal (but not essential) and you will need non-slip shoes with closed toes (water shoes or old trainers are perfect). If you have a buoyancy aid please do bring it with you, if you don't we are able to lend you one.
These three days will follow the RYA training schemes, and offer the opportunity for participants to work towards nationally recognised RYA qualifications.
