RYA Youth Sailing Stage 2 – Developing Core Sailing Skills
This course builds on the fundamentals learned in Stage 1, helping young sailors gain greater confidence and control on the water. Children will further develop their boat-handling skills and learn how to sail more effectively in different directions.
Course highlights:
• Rigging and launching independently
• Sailing on all points of sail
• Tacking and gybing with improved technique
• Basic ropework and essential knots
• Enhanced steering and boat control
By the end of the course, participants will be able to sail confidently around a set course, make controlled turns, and understand how to handle the boat in a wider range of conditions.
Expert tuition is provided by our qualified, DBS-checked instructors, using a modern fleet of dinghies to create a safe, engaging, and supportive learning environment.
Adverse Weather and Reserve Days
All Aboard Watersports reserves the right to postpone or cancel a session in the event of adverse weather conditions or other circumstances beyond our control that may affect safety or the quality of instruction.
Our Youth RYA Sailing and Powerboating courses are advertised as one or two-day courses with a reserve day built in, which will routinely be the Friday of the same week, unless otherwise stated. If we need to cancel a day of the advertised course, the cancelled day will automatically be rescheduled for this reserve day.
Participants are expected to keep the reserve day free when booking a course. If a participant is unable to attend the rescheduled session, we will do our best to offer an alternative date, but this cannot be guaranteed.
