Sailing in Lockdown

At this time of year I usually teach sailing at Buckland Beach Yacht Club, and for Sailability Auckland, a great programme designed for people with disabilities.  My background is in Olympic sailing, and I still compete every year at the Womens' National Keelboat Champs. 

I have enjoyed some time off the water to get fitter and to put together learn to sail videos for you. I am passionate about getting people on the water and enjoying this amazing sport. 

If you want to take up a new challenge but you need a little inspiration and confidence to get on your sailing journey, please get in touch!

Videos: Learn to Sail: Steering and Learn to Sail: Wind Direction 

For your personal demonstration of a TIWAL or to find a dealer near you please get in touch here. 

And finally here are a few ideas to inspire you to get on the water! 

Check out last year's TIWAL Cup in France 

⛵️ Try Virtual Skipper or Virtual Regatta - a virtual programme where you can sail and race around the world!

And just for fun…

Have fun, stay safe and see you on the water soon.
