Practice Sailing Sessions 2024
Although aimed primarily at Cadets and Novices, these sessions provide an opportunity for anyone that fancies going for a gentle sail with patrol boat cover and tractor assistance. The sessions are available most Tuesday evenings and Saturday mornings from June until the end of the school summer holiday. Those interested might also find the Coaching sessions of value.
Practice Sailing is a "self-help" activity; those who make use of it will, naturally, want to help run it occasionally. Volunteers are required to act as coordinators, patrol boat drivers and crew, tractor drivers, and beach crew. To volunteer, go to the Duty Roster, scroll to the appropriate day and click on the appropriate Volunteer button.
Each session will be subject to a minimum of three dinghies, a wind strength of F4 or below and sufficient volunteers to run it. For more detail read the Practice Sailing section of the SOP or go to the website Practice Sailing page.
Precise dates and times are published in the Practice Sailing Programme.
Reservation is not mandatory but it will help. There is no limit to the boats joining the sessions and you can attend if you haven't booked, but we would to encourage you to book here.
