Wife and I take the RYA 1 Course

Start Sai is the most basic of the RYA Courses on learning to sail. Having sailed for several months I felt it was time to take the Helm instead of being crew and show that I could move a sail boat through the water on my own or with my wife crewing.

The Start Sail is a Two Day course 

A fleet of club boats -

Toppers and
Zests and
Fevas

and a popular favourite  - my boat the Toura

Given half a chance everyone wanted to go out in the Toura - even the instructors.

Seeing just what the Toura can do​. Mark the Senior instructor out with Bea, our instructor.

An idea of what we leant is in the lessons area of the website

We go out for a day in the Whaly
