Never tried sailing or looking to improve?

We offer adult and junior beginner sailing training on a Wednesday evening April to September.

Junior sailors progress on to further sailing and race coaching on a Wednesday evening.
This training is run under our status as an RYA Training Centre.
All our training and safety boat cover is provided by qualified volunteers.

On Monday evenings we offer Adult Improver training sessions, to build confidence in boat handling and provide a sailing and social experience for those who don’t feel ready to join in with our racing programme.

We have a range of Club boats available for hire by Club members at extremely good rates.
