Upcoming Team Racing Events

This weekend (1st/2nd February) we welcome universities from across the south to the BUSA Southern Team Racing Qualifiers hosted by the University of Portsmouth Sailing Club. Then on 8th/9th February it is the Wessex Winter Warmer hosted by Southampton University Sailing Club. With over 100 sailors in each of these events it's going to be 4 awesome days of non-stop Firefly team racing action!

Please note due to the scale of these events no activity will be permitted on the water whilst the events are underway.

Learn to Sail This Spring

We have two opportunities to learn to sail this Spring! On 10th/11th March we are running an RYA Level 1 Sailing Course, perfect for those new to sailing. Alternatively we have a six week Learn to Sail group on Thursday mornings, starting on 20th February.

Both of these opportunities will be happening in our Stratos Keelboats, a large dinghy where the instructor can be in the boat with you, and due to it's weighted keel won't capsize! This make for a very comfortable (and dry) way to learn to sail.

RYA Events - 5th February

On Wednesday 5th February we are hosting a number of session and workshops for the RYA in the clubhouse. These will be running from 9am into the evening. Full access will be available to the changing rooms in this time but access to the main room my be restricted depending on the activities taking place.
