Stage 1 – Try Sailing

Overview

Try Sailing is an introductory sailing program where kids aged from 7 – 12 join our experienced instructors in a Quest dinghy. Kids will experience the thrill of sailing over three free sessions before you take the plunge and join our Club and its Learn To Sail programs.

Once they’ve had a go, at no expense at all, if they would like to carry on we would welcome them to the Club as a member (with mum or dad as a member too). They will join in with a small group of sailors just like them, learning the skills and gaining experience to ensure a life time of sailing adventures.
