RYA Level 1 (Start Sailing)

This course is the perfect introduction to sailing. During the two days you will learn all the key skills required to get afloat under supervision in light winds in a single-handed dinghy. Your instructor will take you through how to sail in all directions, teach you how to launch and recover your boat and explain how to recover from capsize. Short theory sessions on the land will teach you about the basic equipment needed, tides and weather. The crewed course is run in a larger dinghy which means the instructor will be in the boat with you.
