Structured Learn to Race

The Club runs a number of Learn to Sail (LTS) programmes to get people sailing anytime during the season and has a variety of LTS boats plus life jackets to suit almost anyone, so the only thing missing is you!

These are typically run concurrently over 6 sessions earlier in the sailing season (September to December). The course fee covers use of Club LTS boats, life jackets, helmets plus Club membership for the season.

For the Racing Skill Builder course.:

• Fine tuning your sailing technique
• More gybing and tacking practise
• How to sail a race course
• Learning pre-start and starting sequences
• The meaning of the various signal flags used in running a race

Once completed there is on-going support for further development by joining in with the racing fleets under guidance of existing Club members, or continuing with the everyday LTS support.
