Whether you used to sail, already sail, or just fancy having a go on a keelboat, you will always be made welcome and looked after, by members of Rutland Civil Sailing Club.
Attendees are encouraged to take a full part in all the activities, helming, crewing etc. You’ll be in safe hands with our qualified helms and crew who have kindly volunteered their time to give you a great sailing experience.
10:00am-12.15pm
1:15pm- 3:30pm
We sail Squib Keelboats – which are 19ft long and have a fixed keel, capable of giving an experienced sailor or new to the sailing crew, a lively and exciting sail. We also have a 27ft Soling, which raced in the 1972 Olympics. If you are nervous about sailing, just to say fixed keelboats are much more stable than a dinghy and highly unlikely to capsize.
Rutland CSSC welcomes all people who would like a taster sail:
CSSC Members
Non- CSSC Members
RAPC Association Members
Children 16 yrs old or older - may sail unaccompanied with a competent helm and crew.
Children under 16 would need to sail with an accompanying adult who has the parent's permission to do so
You will be given a full safety briefing and we will provide buoyancy aids –which must be worn, including on the jetty.
The helm is responsible for crew and boat safety and has the final say regarding the safety of the boat and crew.
