Beginner
The club says all abilities are welcome, explicitly including people who have never been in a boat, novices, and people brand new to watersports.
Training
Members can get ongoing training through regular club sessions: sailing on Sundays and canoe/kayak sessions on Thursday evenings. The club says it is not currently able to provide paddleboarding instruction.
Taster
The club says its fleet supports open days and taster sessions, and the Sailability page has a 2026 invitation to come and try sailing by arrangement. No regular public taster schedule was found; the FAQ says non-members without kit should use Brenin Adventures rather than club-run sessions.
