Immerse yourself in the moment, focus on the simple pleasures of wind, water, and sky…
Are you new to sailing or are you interested in practising your dinghy sailing skills? If yes, then the Nepean Sailing Club’s Dinghy Skills Practice sessions may be just for you.
NSC’s Dinghy Skills Practice sessions are for sailors who are looking for more opportunities to practice dinghy sailing on the water. In a helpful and encouraging environment, NSC’s Dinghy Skills Practice focuses on beginner dinghy sailor skills development and includes both on-land and on-the-water sections (but mostly on water!).
What former participants have said about these sessions:
“Great instructors, willing to share their experience and encourage participants to practice and engage in further building their skills.”
“Gave new sailors a chance to get out on the water, practice their skills, and meet other keen dinghy sailors.”
“Loved the opportunity to refresh skills and just to have a committed, scheduled time to come out and sail at a reasonable cost.”
“Thank you so much for running the Dinghy Skills Program! It was exactly what I needed to get back into sailing.”
Four 3-hour sessions will take place on Friday July 4, 11, 18, and 25 from 5 to 8pm.
To participate:
The sessions are for NSC members who have CanSail 2 or equivalent training/experience.
If you bring your own dinghy, the sessions cost $25. For participants without a dinghy, there is a $50 registration fee to cover the cost of equipment.
Event registration can be done at this Eventbrite site.
Registration is full for Dinghy Skills participants using Club boats in July. If you are bringing your own Dinghy/ Cat, there is lots of room and registration remains open.
Please email the Dinghy Race Practice coordinator, Leonore Evans if you would like to be added to the waiting list and/ or receive advance notice for the August registration or for further information.
Looking forward to spending time on the water together!
