Itinerary
& Highlights |
| |
Your session will start with meeting your skipper and crew mates for the day over a hot drink, before heading to the yacht. The yacht is a modern Sigma 8 metre which is fast, manoeuvrable and easy to handle - the perfect vessel for your first taste of yacht racing! You will receive a full safety briefing from your skipper who will issue you with a life jacket and, if the weather requires, oil skins. It is then time to take to the seas to commence your training which will include helming the yacht, sail handling, basic tactics and much more. It's then race time! The fleet of up to six yachts will line up for a twenty minute race around a floating race track where you can prove that your crew has the skills and teamwork necessary to finish first. Your session will finish by heading back to shore where you will no doubt be recounting tales of your epic battles upon the high seas before a debrief and official race results. |
