NYC Adult Sailing Courses

We believe sailing is a wonderful gift in life.  If you wish for it to be a part of yours or to improve your existing skills to enjoy it more or to learn so as to enjoy the sport with your Junior Sailor(s) - NYC Adult Sail Training can provide the opportunity.

We are running Adult Sailing courses for members and non-members alike to cover the basics, more complex stuff and racing roles.

Benefits of Sailing:

An outdoor, healthy activity - powered by the wind.

A sport for life - for young and old alike, for you or the whole family.

A multi-faceted activity - cruising, day trips, racing, ocean travel.

A great getaway from the office or busy life - even for a few hours.

Courses:

Start Sailing - all the basics you need to be comfortable on a boat (no experience required).

Improve Sailing/Seamanship - the skills you need to be part of a team in medium conditions.

Advanced Sailing/Racing - the skills you need to execute racing roles (helm, trim, pit, foredeck) at a local level.

Dates:

Courses will be run over 4 half days at the weekends (9am-1pm, 2pm-5pm) or selected weekday evenings (5-9pm).  Sailing is weather dependent - so sessions may need to be postponed.

Boats:

Courses will be run in J80s, a small, stable, fast and responsive, keelboat - best for the all round experience and a pathway to all yachts.

Instructors:

Instructors will be experienced members or coaches.  NYC is an approved Irish Sailing Training Centre.

Accreditation:

Courses can be accredited to the Irish Sailing Small Boat programme and used in conjunction with the Irish Sailing Passport.  www.sailing.ie

Cost:

€120 Euro for members.

€250 for non-members providing temporary membership of the club and tuition for the duration of the course.

Cost of the course will be discounted against new annual membership fees.

 

Structure:

Courses will be organised for any group of 4 adults with similar goals.

Enjoying the social element at the club before and afterwards will be encouraged.

A Whatsapp group will facilitate coordination, further learning, sailing and social opportunities within the club.

Gear:

Waterproof jacket & salopettes, Life jacket, Warm Layers, Hat, Non-marking runners or sailing boots, Gloves, a few thin cotton layers below a fleece and a smile.

 How to sign up:

  1. Send your individual expression of interest with level, goal and preferred schedule (weekend/weekday).
  2. Gather four like-minded friends and send your collective expression of interest with level, goal and preferred schedule (weekend/weekday).

Courses will be curated as demand arises - so get in touch!!
