Dinghy Sailing Taster Weekend-CANCELLED
July 2, 2022 @ 9:00 am – July 3, 2022 @ 5:00 pm
A fun and informal introduction to dinghy sailing in a safe environment on some of the best sailing waters in the United Kingdom. This course is aimed both at novices who have no sailing experience and those with experience who wish to improve their sailing skills.
You will learn the key skills required to get afloat under supervision in light winds in a single or double-handed dinghy. We use RS Quests, RS Qubas and Lasers for this training.
Your instructor will also take you through how to sail in all directions, teach you how to safely launch and recover your boat and explain how to recover from a capsize. Short theory sessions on the land will teach you about the basic equipment needed, tides and weather.
Prices:
Member: £180
Non Member: £220
Please be aware this course is subject to last minute cancellation due to weather, low uptake or unforeseen circumstances.
