For our very enthusiastic six and seven year olds who are keen to get on the water and give it a go, we offer 2-day sailing courses at our Poole Park Location. Based on a large lake, it offers a safe environment for youngsters to learn. While still following the RYA scheme, youngsters will also grow in confidence and hopefully develop a love for the sport which will see them sailing for years to come. This course is offered at our Poole Park centre only.
RYA Stage 1 Start Sailing (2 days) - For 6 or 8 year olds. During the course you will learn launching and recovery, steering, parts of the boat and basic sailing.
After the course you will be able to steer and understand basic principles.
RYA Stage 2 Basic Skills (2 days) - For 7 & 8 year olds. During the course you will learn basic sailing skills, ropework and collision avoidance

For complete beginners aged 6-8 years who want to achieve their RYA Stages 1 and 2 you can book onto both of the 2-day modules and complete both stages over 4 days.
