SUMMARY:Sail training - Park it like a pro
DESCRIPTION:Our most popular event day literally teaches you how to park your sailing boat like a pro. Leaving and coming back to your berth is often the most nerve wracking part of the day – but it really needn’t be. Build your confidence and learn new skills from an RYA instructor who will teach you how to use the wind\, tide\, prop walk and prop wash to your advantage. \nThis full day event is open to both experienced and new skippers and covers everything required for a perfect park. You will plan your manoeuvre\, communicate with your crew and gain plenty of hands on practice mooring the boat in a variety of conditions. \n

SUMMARY:Yachtmaster skills - Man overboard & safety
DESCRIPTION:When was the last time you practiced MOB? Does your crew have the skills to recover you from the water? Would you and your crew benefit from refreshing your knowledge of safety equipment and best practices? If you feel extra training would be beneficial in any of these areas we recommend joining our safety at sea day under the expert guidance of an RYA instructor. For new and more experienced skippers alike\, this is an opportunity to brush up and practice your knowledge of key skills which need to be fresh every time you set sail. \nThe day will include a recap of Safety equipment and procedures including:\n– man overboard under engine\n– man overboard under sail\n– life jackets\n– harness lines\n– life raft\n– flares and use of flares\n– sounds and signals\n– VHF procedures including reminder of DSC operations. \n

SUMMARY:Yachtmaster skills - Boat handling under sail
DESCRIPTION:The ability to sail well in close quarters is an often-neglected skill for modern sailors. Could you keep calm and carry on without the engine in the event of gear failure? Or perhaps examiner intervention!\nBenefiting from a low student ratio this clinic style day will build your confidence\, understanding and ability to sail through manoeuvres you’d normally start the donk’ for. \nUnder the guidance of an experienced RYA instructor\, you’ll look at short tacking\, sailing onto pontoons\, picking up moorings and fenders under sail as well as delving into how to adjust your strategy for differing conditions.

SUMMARY:Yachtmaster skills – Advanced navigation & skippering
DESCRIPTION:Elevate your handling\, sharpen your judgement and progress toward Yachtmaster standard\nBuild the confidence\, precision and higher‑level seamanship expected of a Yachtmaster‑standard skipper. This two‑day training event sits between Skipper it like a Pro and our full Yachtmaster Prep & Exam week\, giving members a focused opportunity to accelerate their progression\, refine advanced techniques and gain structured practice in skills rarely rehearsed during normal cruising. \nAcross the two days you’ll work through realistic scenarios\, targeted coaching and higher‑intensity manoeuvres designed to strengthen judgement\, improve consistency and help you feel calm and in control in more demanding conditions. You’ll come away with greater confidence\, more assured handling and a clear understanding of your next steps. \nYou’ll learn to\n–  Handle a yacht confidently under sail in close quarters\, using clear crew communication and decision-making to carry out controlled slow‑speed manoeuvres.\n–  Apply structured techniques for advanced berthing\, including springing on and off\, wind-against-tide approaches and strategies for more complex scenarios.\n–  Plan and execute night pilotage using lights\, transits\, depths and electronic navigation to maintain safe\, accurate progress after dark.\n–  Recognise and interpret lights and buoyage to support confident navigation in reduced visibility. \nWho’s it for? \nMembers who have completed Skipper it like a Pro or have equivalent experience\, and who want to build the confidence and consistency needed before stepping up to Yachtmaster preparation.

SUMMARY:Yachtmaster Skills - Advanced berthing & seamanship
DESCRIPTION:We consider this one-day mooring clinic an essential addon to our hugely popular ‘park it like a pro’ event. Practice yachtmaster level boat handling and ensure you know how\, and when to use lines to stay in control when alongside\, and while mooring and departing. \nA robust understanding of how best to use mooring lines is a good way to demonstrate your depth of experience to an examiner and we often see that a lack of practice translates to confused and incomplete crew briefs which fail to impress the examiner!\nBenefiting from a low training ratio this YM level event looks at the techniques you should have up your sleeve for the scenarios that require a different approach.

SUMMARY:Yachtmaster Skills - Advanced berthing & seamanship
DESCRIPTION:We consider this one-day mooring clinic an essential addon to our hugely popular ‘park it like a pro’ event. Practice yachtmaster level boat handling and ensure you know how\, and when to use lines to stay in control when alongside\, and while mooring and departing. \nA robust understanding of how best to use mooring lines is a good way to demonstrate your depth of experience to an examiner and we often see that a lack of practice translates to confused and incomplete crew briefs which fail to impress the examiner!\nBenefiting from a low training ratio this YM level event looks at the techniques you should have up your sleeve for the scenarios that require a different approach.

SUMMARY:Yachtmaster skills - Boat handling under sail
DESCRIPTION:The ability to sail well in close quarters is an often-neglected skill for modern sailors. Could you keep calm and carry on without the engine in the event of gear failure? Or perhaps examiner intervention!\nBenefiting from a low student ratio this clinic style day will build your confidence\, understanding and ability to sail through manoeuvres you’d normally start the donk’ for. \nUnder the guidance of an experienced RYA instructor\, you’ll look at short tacking\, sailing onto pontoons\, picking up moorings and fenders under sail as well as delving into how to adjust your strategy for differing conditions.

SUMMARY:Racing - Round the Island Race - Cruiser Racers
DESCRIPTION:The Round the Island Race is the biggest yacht race of the year\, globally. Approximately 1\,800 yachts\, from small day-sailors to 100-foot multihulls\, line up to race the 60-mile course around the Isle of Wight. Taking part lets you soak up the unique atmosphere created by this mass participation event\, with so many sailors in one place\, the tension of so many yachts around you and the multiple on-the-water battles there is no other race like it. If you want an exhilarating competitive race\, a fantastic spectacle\, a real sense of achievement and a lasting memory then look no further. \nThe Race:\nThe Cruiser boat will take place typically on one of our Hanses\, Dufours or Jeanneau which are a little more cruise oriented and compete under ISC which is a looser rating system and generally a bit less hardcore\, but still flying spinnakers and plenty of on-the-water action. \nThe itinerary (subject to change):\nFriday – Join your race skipper and fellow crew at 09:00am in Hamble for a day of training. The focus will be on teamwork and maximising boat speed in preparation for the race. On Friday evening the boat will return to Port Hamble for a crew de-brief and dinner ashore. \nSaturday – Race Day always begins with an early start!

SUMMARY:Mile builder - France
DESCRIPTION:This weekend mile builder is perfect for anyone wanting to gain coastal and night sailing experience\, but also for those wanting to visit some destinations a bit further afield. \nDepending on the weather forecast\, we expect to set off from Hamble on Friday evening and after leaving the Solent\, head across the channel for Cherbourg. In the event that conditions are unsuitable for a channel crossing we’d endeavour to make a passage of similar mileage along the south coast. For those with suitable experience\, this is also an ideal opportunity to skipper a leg and tick off a qualifying passage for the Yachtmaster qualification. \nPrice: \nSaloon berth: 36 points or £470\nPrivate cabin (single occupancy): 50 points or £650\nPrivate cabin (twin occupancy): 70 points or £910
