Beginner
Lympstone Sailing Club says it provides sailing for members of all ages and abilities, encourages people to learn to sail as an RYA accredited centre, and says people who would like to sail can be helped to find someone to sail with. New sailors should note the club is membership-based and its FAQ says sail training is primarily for youngsters.
Training
The club is an RYA accredited centre. It says it runs summer sail training, usually on Friday evenings or Saturday mornings, plus race training; first aid and Powerboat Level 1 and 2 courses are run for members on request. The FAQ says sail training courses are primarily for youngsters.
