Race Coaching
We also run race training weekends for aspirant racers and regular weekly training sessions for local juniors.
In addition to sailing courses we also offer Power Boat level 2, Safety Boat and First Aid courses for club volunteers. These courses are offered to encourage more members to help with the running of the club, and are therefore heavily subsidised.
