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.
