  • 5 days

This 5-day course will allow students to earn RYA Stage 3

Description

This 3-day course takes young sailors to the next level, focusing on independent dinghy sailing in a variety of conditions. Participants will develop their skills in rigging, launching, sailing in all directions, and performing accurate manoeuvres such as coming alongside a moored boat, man overboard, and stopping. The course also emphasizes understanding the five essentials of sailing: balance, trim, centreboard, sail setting, and course. Taught in the dynamic waters around Southampton Water, this course prepares sailors for greater autonomy on the water and successful completion can earn their RYA Stage 3 certification.

Looking to try to have a full 5 days of Sailing? We often run Active Sail Advanced on the days following our Stage 3 courses to allow sailors to consolidate and practice their skills!

The staff are very friendly, with an excellent selection of courses and boats. The atmosphere is great and the paddle boarding sessions are very fun. Very good for beginner sailors.

My kids started out nervous, but the staff are very welcoming and soon made them feel happy. They had a brilliant week and now love sailing. I felt very happy leaving my kids with the staff very professional and security ...
