Beginner

The current official site describes Halifax Sailing and Watersports Club as a friendly club on 90 acres of water with training courses, and the current training page lists RYA Basic Sailing Level 1 and RYA Start Windsurfing weekend courses. The 2026 training membership form says trainees do not need to own a boat, have access to club boats, boards and equipment under supervision during and after successfully completing the course, and are actively encouraged to continue through improver groups. The current RYA listing confirms beginner-level dinghy, youth dinghy, powerboat and windsurfing courses.

Training

The current official training page says the club is an RYA Recognized Training Establishment running weekend courses for RYA Basic Sailing Level 1 and RYA Start Windsurfing, with 2026 course dates listed from May to September. It gives non-member course fees of GBP 185 for dinghy and GBP 155 for windsurfing, including club membership for the rest of the year, and a GBP 25 course fee for club members who have paid a non-discounted subscription. The current RYA listing also shows Halifax as a Training Centre with dinghy, youth dinghy, powerboat and windsurfing course levels.
