Foiling
Moth coaching is our speciality. With access to our fleet that includes Bladeriders and the new Waszp you will not find a more suitable location to Learn to Fly. Foiling at first look can appear to be fraught with difficulty but the reality is that if you are relatively fit, less than 90kg and can sail a planing dinghy with confidence then Moth sailing is attainable for you. With the most experienced foiling coaches in the world and an environment that takes away the stresses involved in launching, landing and sailing the moth you will quickly find yourself at the point of no return and ordering your new boat after the first day! There will be no going back to the water huggers of the past.
The course is always undertaken with low numbers..a maximum of 3 to ensure that you get enough boat time as well as learning from your colleagues and having a well deserved rest as learning can be initially, quite strenuous!
Coaching is undertaken from a rib from which we can remain in close contact with the sailor through use of a waterproof helmet comms. system.
