Sailing Taster Course at Trimley Sailing Club 2010

That time of year again - Trimpley (West Midlands) are running a taster sailing course, more details within.

Aimed at complete beginners or those with a little experience, this course is an ideal introduction to the basics and the fun and excitement of dinghy sailing. Teenagers are generally taught in a boat, most commonly the Topper, and the younger children are placed two up in an Optimist with an instructor coaching alongside from a safety boat. Adults will be buddied up with an experienced helm in either a GP14 or a Laser. The 4 week course will enable participants to gain the experience and instruction to be able to confidently helm a small dinghy. By the end of the 4 week course the participants will have developed a range of sailing skills and background knowledge and will be on their way to becoming a confident sailor. Our beginner courses run twice a year. Please note we are not an RYA qualified training centre and do not issue RYA Sailing Qualifications. Price includes full use of our Galley area, changing and showering facilities, bouyancy aids, experienced sailors instruction and boat usage. Adults £80, Youth (under 18s) £40.

The course runs at Trimley Reservor, near Kidderminster, from 9.30am on Sunday May 2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd. Please contact Michelle Tromans (michelle.tromans at hotmail.co.uk) for more details or to book now.
