Select the link / 2025 Development Sailing / above to see a list of the remaining Practice Sailing Sessions this season.

Development Sailing will take place from 11:00 on most Saturday mornings from mid June until the end of the school holiday. It is very similar to, the now traditional, Practice Sailing with the difference that, hopefully, an RYA Dinghy Instructor or Assistant Instructor will be available. Reservation is not mandatory but if you intend taking part you are encouraged to book via WebCollect (here).

Practice Sailing sessions are available on Tuesday evenings from mid June to the end of the school summer holiday.

Those interested in Practice Sailing or Development Sailing might also find the Coaching sessions of value.

Development Sailing is a "self-help" activity; those who make use of it will, naturally, want to help run it occasionally. Volunteers are required to act as coordinators, patrol boat drivers and crew, tractor drivers, and beach crew. A volunteer RYA Instructor would also appreciated. If you are logged in, the Duty Roster for this event is visible at the foot of this page. To volunteer, simply scroll down and click on the appropriate Volunteer button. Alternatively, go to the Duty Roster, scroll to the appropriate day and click on the appropriate Volunteer button.

Each session will be subject to a minimum of three dinghies, a wind strength of F4 or below and sufficient volunteers to run it. For more detail read the Practice Sailing section of the SOP or go to the website Practice Sailing page.

The Club Boats page may also be relevant. To book a Club Boat, go to WebCollect.

Precise dates and times will be published in the Practice/Development Sailing Programme.
