Beginner
The club says it is an RYA recognised training centre and offers structured beginner courses for adults and juniors, designed to take complete beginners toward confident sailing. Adult Level 1 is described as a relaxed introduction for complete beginners using stable double-handed boats with qualified instructors.
Training
The current training page lists RYA adult National Sailing Scheme courses for ages 16+, including Level 1 Start Sailing and Level 2 Basic Skills, and junior Youth Sailing Scheme Stage 1 and Stage 2 courses. The home page also says the club offers learn-to-sail and powerboat courses throughout the year.
Taster· Unclear
I did not find current official visible content confirming taster sessions, try-sailing sessions, or open days for beginners. The booking area shows open meetings and special events, but the visible current pages reviewed did not describe beginner taster availability.
