Your session

On arrival, and after a centre briefing, you will have a short discussion with your instructor about what you want out of the day and the format of the training. Then we will rig the boats and get you on the water for some fun and learning with some off the water sessions as well and then at the end derig the boats. Feedback on your achievements will be given by your instructor at the end of the day with an action plan on where to go next.
