Course information
Registrations for this course are closed.
For sailors who have completed Tackers 3/Out There Sailing Combined, or have sailed with Green or Orange Fleet before. Green and Orange Fleet give you the opportunity to hone your skills, with the aim of being able to sail independently and join in the club racing classes and Adventure Sail Pathway.
Participants will have the use of club boats and will be fully supported in their development by our coaching team. Sailors will need to purchase their own boat before they can progress into the Intermediate and Race Training fleets. Each participant is entitled to three trial sessions before making a commitment, but must then become a Junior Member. A nominal coaching fee will be levied from all participants to contribute towards the cost of running the program. This coaching fee is due on signing up.

We recognise that some of our course participants are completing the Duke of Edinburgh's International Award and may be using sailing and/or club membership to complete one or more sections of The Award. To learn more, click here.
