What Can I Expect
Learn to sail in Dorset on the sheltered waters of Poole Harbour! These RYA certified two-day courses are the perfect way to learn how to sail - and you get your RYA Level 1 sailing certificate on successful completion of the course.
This renowned Dorset centre is based right in the middle of one of the most beautiful sailing areas in the country, which also happens to be Europe's largest natural harbour. Calm waters means you will be learning the essential basics needed to sail a small boat in a zone that is ideal for beginners, as there are no high seas or tides to tackle.
All instructors based at Rockley Point in Poole are fully Royal Yachting Association qualified. Led by training and development manager Liz McMaster, the team is passionate about teaching and believes you are never too old to learn the skills needed to sail.
You will be learning in Wayfarers, which are popular training sail dinghies with a Marconi rig, main sail, jib and symmetrical spinnaker. These sailing terms may mean nothing to you now, but you will learn all about them over the two days!
By the end of the two days you have to learn to sail, you will (all being well!) have gained your RYA Level 1 sailing qualification. Having learnt all about rigging, tacking, gybing, sailing upwind and downwind, points of sailing and man overboard recovery in these enjoyable 4.82m long sail boats, you can feel very proud of yourself!
The sailing centre can also advise on local accommodation from camping and B&Bs, to international hotels so you make a little holiday out of your two-day earning to sail course at Dorset’s lovely Poole Harbour!
