Description

The day sailing course has assumed knowledge and ability to stage 4 or level 3. The course consists of preparing and planning for a day sail, pilotage and decision making including adverse conditions. When the day sailing has been achieved sailors will be able to plan and execute a cruise dependant on conditions.

If you have your own wet gear such as a buoyancy aid or wetsuit, we recommend you wear this as you know it fits and is comfortable. Suitable footwear is required to be worn while on the course, this could be wetsuit boots, wet shoes or old trainers. We do not allow flip flops and we do not recommend crocs.

If you don’t have your own kit, we can provide equipment for you whilst on your sailing course, this can include wetsuits, spray tops and buoyancy aids. We do not provide footwear.

Even if the weather is overcast, we would recommend wearing sun cream, on hot & sunny days a sun hat & sunglasses is a good idea. Water bottles can be taken out to stay hydrated & there is a free water filling station on the dinghy park
