Autumn 2010 saw a one off Dinghy Seamanship rSeamanship run for intermediate and novice dinghy sailors by the RYA. Apart from the fact this shows the great flexibility of the training suited to our members needs a great day was had by all !!
June 2011 saw the a re-run of the course in very testing conditons for the benefit of our new members and indeed many students from the last course re-attended. Despite the long day which involves two lengthy sessions on the water all still had the energy give the course a resounding thumbs up.
