We are a long established Sailing Club and Royal Yachting Association Recognised Training Centre, based in the picturesque Rickmansworth Aquadrome. Every year we teach several thousand young people and adults to sail and develop their skills. We have:
- 70 modern sailing dinghies (RS200, 420, Laser, Pico, Topper, Wayfarer, Leader, Coypu, Oppie, Funboat, and Laser 2000’s)
- 6 dedicated rescue craft
- Tuition provided by an enthusiastic team of qualified volunteer instructors
- Galley providing light refreshments
Training courses are offered for Adults, Students (up to 24, but in full-time education), Youths (aged 9-16) and also for 7-9s.
Our aim is to make sailing an accessible activity. As a beginner you won’t need any expensive clothing or equipment. On booking a training course you will receive comprehensive joining instructions, and our friendly team will answer any questions you may have. Come and join in the fun!
