Following an introductory briefing you will take part in your first low speed sail and your experienced instructor will explain how to stop the land yacht. Once comfortable, you will move on to a figure of eight course to master safe, controlled turns before having the chance to learn tricky manoeuvres such as a "gybe turn". Later in the day you may sail your land yacht on a larger circuit as you take part in racing and performance sailing. A fun and exhilarating activity, and a must for speed demons!
Group Size: There will be up to 19 other participants in your group.
This is a full day's activity.

I had a few problems with my booking that got quite complicated. I dealt with a lady called Kerry Cable and I must say I haven't had such good customer service in a long time. She was very fast to reply to my queries, understanding, apologetic and dealt with the problems quickly and efficiently. You have a great employee there who I'm sure does wonders for your reputation whenever she deals with your customers! Thanks Kerry!
