Whilst the wind was light during this Saturdays Juniors our instructor team used the opportunity to run a Swim Safe Session.

After learning about cold water shock, where and when you should enter water, what to do if you find yourself in a situation and much more, we were proud to present 20 Swim Safe Certificates.

It's that time again - registration for Juniors next Saturday is now open.

Will we be seeing you there?

The day will begin at 9.30am, so please ensure your sailor arrives before this time, is in sailing kit and ready to start by 9.30am. The session finishes at 4pm and so a responsible adult must be on site before this time in order to collect and sign out their sailor.
