Adult level 3 training courses are RYA Approved and run over 3 days and is available to members only.

What is the course?

The improver course seeks to bridge the gap between Start Sailing, Basic Skills and the Advanced Modules by offering an introduction to the different modules, allowing sailors to more easily select their preferred route within the sport. Better Sailing allows for opportunity to practise and consolidate sailing techniques, and to experience some of the activities the advanced modules have to offer, helping you to build confidence and support development of good technique and independent sailing. 

What should I bring?

In essence you will need, clothes for the shore, clothes for sailing, your logbook and a way to make notes etc. It is always colder on the water than on land and you may be wet for many hours so make sure you have enough. A full kit list is available here:
