GET SAILING, GET SKILLS, GET SOCIAL!
GET SAILING, GET SKILLS, GET SOCIAL!
Done my 2 Day Sailing Skills Course over the weekend and can’t say enough praise about about the two days. Our instructor Sophie was brilliant, patient and knew her boating stuff. Excellent instructor, definitely recommend the course. The weather was sunny, windy and some rain. It is west of Ireland so be prepared for all types weather in one day! The boat for training was a J24 which was ideal for the five students including instructor. Will be back for more courses, can’t wait. Thanks to Wild West Sailing for a great weekend. Brendan Blake
