See Sailing Your Way
Working in conjunction with RYA Sailability, Blind Sailing UK and New Forest Sailability we are very excited to be running See Sailing Your Way at Spinnaker Sailing Club this year! Over 15 weeks we have an opportunity for visually impaired individuals to learn to sail in a tailored, welcoming environment, with support to continue sailing beyond this programme for those who wish to continue sailing.
Over 15 weeks we are running two learn to sail courses exclusively for visually impaired individuals, and 3 one-off sessions to consolidate sailing skills once individuals have learnt to sail.

Upcoming Youth Training Opportunities
We have had a fantastic amount of interest in our RYA Training courses in the Easter holidays and Block 1 of Spinnaker Youth Training this year. We cannot wait to see so many young people on the water, and only have a few spaces left!
