A summary

We deliver summer sailing courses from our waterside clubhouse on the Estuary. Our instructors will get you on the water to learn how to sail in a fun and safe environment. Each boat is skippered by a qualified instructor and you will join them to learn the ropes. The sailing fleet is supported by our motor safety boats who make sure that anyone who needs help can be supported. You will need to be keen to learn and want to be active. The course teaches safety on the water, sailing theory and the practical aspects of sailing the dinghies. By the end of the week you will be sailing up the river.
