Our Coaching Program
Tuesday Night Double Handed Coaching & Foiling
Robbs Hielkma
This session includes . . .
Feva Sailing: This is aimed at sailors who wish to start sailing in a double handed boat (Feva). It is not a requirement to already have a partener organised to attend the session as a Feva sailor.
29er Sailing: The Club has two 29ers available for those sailors with double handed experience, that are ready to progress to 29er. A discussion with Robbs Andy or Aevril, about whether you or your sailor is ready to progress to 29er is an important step before registering in a double handed session to sail 29er.
Foiling Fleets: Robbs will be giving tips and pointers to any foiling sailors who would like to come along to get time on the water.

Before going on the water please ensure you have let the safety vessel skipper know that you intend to sail and that you would like them to keep an eye out on you. Remember to sign on and off the water. Club Boat hire forms are available in the Club and you can hire boats via the QR code on the window. The Casual boat hire procedure is as follow:
