Members please note that on the following Wednesday evenings in May, priority will be given to ‘Try Sailors’. You are more than welcome to come along, help rig, launch, chat to the new people and encourage them.
The volunteer instructors are running instruction nights at Fairhaven Lake on Wednesday evenings from 18:30 and members are eligible to enjoy instruction afloat designed to:-
Increase confidence
Increase time afloat
Improve individual performance.
As an RYA Training Centre, we are able to offer certification (National Sailing and Youth Schemes)as competence and increased knowledge is demonstrated.
You can buy a logbook from the Training Principal and this covers all the syllabus in your particular scheme.
We provide appropriate boats, although you are free to bring along your own boat if you prefer.
We can provide buoyancy aids too, but if you have your own, so much the better.
