Learn to sail report 27/02/2016

29/2/2016

 
A warm cloudy day around 26 degrees Celsius with ESE to SE 5 knot breeze with some stronger gusts a little stronger provided perfect conditions for learn to sail. This week nine (9) young sailors coming down to test their skills. We spoke about wind direction and strength ideal for learn to sail such as today. Sailing into the wind and having to sail at an angle to the wind.

This week Hannah, Hannah's mum and Dan manned the small rubber ducky. They set a starboard triangular course. Windward mark offshore and the wing mark towards the entrance to the harbour. After a couple of laps the young sailors started to get the hang of sailing toward a windward mark.

Sailing at an angle as you cannot make progress straight into the wind. We then had a mini race and all the kids who participated were keen to try and beat each other. Once sailing finished the kids headed to shore and packed up the boats.

At debriefing we spoke about the juniors camp being moved to 2
nd and 3rd of April. 19th and 20th March will be just a normal learn to sail day.

Next week is the Katagatta so there will be no junior sailing. Junior learn to sail will be back to normal the following week.

Regards Hugh.
