Dinghy
sailing is a fantastic sport, which rewards even a small amount of skill.
People of all abilities and ages can take part in the sport, either by themselves,
as a team or a family.
Thanks
to the support of the Montpelier Group, the RSYC Academy
is pleased to be able to offer a new dinghy sailing programme for children and
adults.
The
RSYC - Montpelier
dinghy programme will offer a full range of dinghy courses to accommodate both
the absolute beginner and those with some experience.
Our
dinghy sailing programmes for both Juniors and Adults are based on the syllabus
of the Royal Yachting Associations Dinghy Sailing Scheme, a tried and tested programme
of Instruction.
The
programme is broken into Junior and Adult courses, with each of the two programmes
offering courses for those who have never sailed before, and taking them to a
level were they are confident on the water and in control of their sailing dinghy.
The more experienced sailor can come into the programme at a higher level by doing
direct assessment on their skills at specific points in the programme.
This 2 day course introduces you to the sport of Dinghy Racing, with an aim of
getting you participating in the dinghy racing activities at Royal Selangor Yacht
Club. If you have not got your own boat, you can charter a boat from the
clubs training fleet once you have passed this course.
