Weekend sailing at Largs on the Clyde in Scotland

This is an ideal sailing weekend for either the beginner wanting to start sailing and gain an RYA Start Yachting certificate or the more experienced sailor looking for time on the water. It also works well as a refresher sail, for building miles towards RYA qualifications or even the chance to tick off some extra bits of an RYA certificate.

The course will start on Friday evening and run through to Sunday afternoon, we will stay within the Clyde making a suitable plan for the crew and conditions. Without doubt we will see some awesome Scottish scenery.

For those who want to do Day Skipper or Competent Crew over weekends simply choose 3 weekends.
