Full-fingered sailing gloves are required by all sailors. Towels and warm jackets, water, snack and packed lunch (to be consumed outside) are recommended to be included in their bags.

There will be no access to the club house for showers, changing rooms etc. Toileting will be provided, this will be one child at a time.

You can book the appropriate sessions on the website. Do not book if your child is not happy or confident to sail on their own.

No child will be allowed to stay and wait outside of the hours of sailing.

Our policy is no refunds unless we have a full week of no sailing due to exceptionally windy weather. Parents/guardians of cadets sailing are required to be contactable at all times during these sessions.
