Sail Training & Tuition
All our activities aim at developing your skill and experience, we have students/clients that have gone on to do the RORC Fastnet and/or to become instructor in their own right. However, you do not need to follow a formal syllabus.
The RYA courses provide some excellent levels but it is vital to build your skills in between, as most sailors will admit that they learn something new every time they go on the water - this is certainly the environment we want to encourage, there is much to learn and skills to develop. Our weekend sailing program offers the opportunity to identify the skills and knowledge required and then get more practice. Our cruising activities enable you to go further a field across to France, or further along the coast, building up passage experience and sea miles.
Our race program focuses on getting the best from our boat - “Safeena Saree” is not the fastest boat but she is safe and comfortable and the sailing agenda is set by the race whether strong or light winds, navigation & sailing skills are at the fore.

Typical destinations being Northern France, The Baie De Siene, Cherbourg, Brittany or the Channel Islands or the South West of England and experience a more relaxed pace.
