Kick Start Training 2017

Struggling to remember the difference between a tack or a gybe, or how far you can tip the boat over in a roll tack, or even where you put everything the last time you sailed last Season ?????????

Well the Kick Start Sessions are just for you then!


These are informal sessions designed to get all members that can sail (both improvers and racers) back on the water with some general training so you can practice your key skills and to regain that sailing habit. It also gives you the chance to sort your boat out and get it out on the water after the winter layoff, or just get sailing again by borrowing a Club Boat.

There are 4 sessions in total, two sessions on Tuesdays, April 4th and 11th, starting at 6.30pm (on the water at 7.00) and two sessions on Saturdays, April 15th and 22nd, starting at 11.30 (on the water at 12.00).


We will be chasing the light on the two evening sessions so we will all have to be fairly efficient to make best use of the time before the sun sets!
Finally we have had some nice weather recently during the day but it does drops cold on an evening so please make sure you are wearing plenty to stay warm.


Then the following Tuesday (18th April) the normal Tuesday Night Training commence
This the main stay of the Club training and these sessions are designed to boost everybody’s confidence and their competence on the water and to introduce people to the joys of sailing
The Sessions start at 6.30pm to get boats ready for the briefing at 7.00pm finishing about 8.30pm and these sessions will run every Tuesday from the 18th April until the 8th August.



See you on the water
