Singlehanded Class Captain's Race Training
9th September 2023, 10:30 - 16:00
Our final adult race training session - run from 1030 to 1600 on Saturday 9th September - is titled "How to win at Spinnaker" and will concentrate on the strategies you need to get you around the course quicker that anyone else - or at least improve your average position. Of course, boat handling skills, starting well, dealing with other boats, getting round the marks, and staying within the rules are all part of winning, and the first two training sessions covered these. But now we need to add in those variables of wind direction and strength, shores and islands, trueness and length of beats, and likely much more, all to be negotiated when other boats are intent on being in your way!
We'll learn a bit onshore and practice a lot on the water, finish with some short races to put it all into practice and refresh ourselves with tea and cakes to round it all off. Do book yourself in and come and enjoy an excellent days training.Last updated 4:11pm on 19 April 2025
