Availability: Selected Saturdays and Sundays from April to October. We recommend booking early for this popular experience. Weather: Sailing is a weather dependent activity. It is vital that you telephone the centre the day before your booking to confirm conditions. Strong winds or rough seas will have an impact on the day, and in such cases the itinerary is subject to change. Duration: Your experience runs for approximately three hours. Please allow some extra time for a possible later return, depending on the tide and weather on the day. Please arrive in good time (ideally few minutes in advance). Numbers On Day: There will be up to ten people plus a cruising or yacht master instructor on board. Spectators: Spectators are welcome to wave you off from the marina, but won't be able to join you on board. Dress Code: You must wear flat, soft and light-soled, non-marking shoes, eg deck shoes or trainers or you wont be permitted aboard. Wear lots of layers, it can get cold out at sea. Bring extra clothes and sun protection. Life-jackets and sailing gear is provided. Guidelines: Restrictions: Minimum age is 16 accompanied by another voucher holding adult and 18 unaccompanied. No weight limit applies. You need to be agile enough to get on and off the boat but don't need any previous sailing experience and non-swimmers are welcome. Other Info: Where possible you will both race on the same boat together but please be aware that as two boats are used for the experience, this cannot be guaranteed.

You'll begin with a briefing on board the vessel (a 26ft Sigma performance yacht), before being issued with sailing essentials and a life jacket. When you're ready the yachtmaster will introduce you to the fundamentals of sailing, from hoisting the sails to helming. Dependent on weather conditions, you will venture out into the English Channel for some genuine open-water cruising or indulge in a sightseeing tour along the picturesque Sussex coastline. The choice is yours - take an active role in the sailing, or sit back and relax while the crew do the hard work. Back on dry land, log books can be signed off for those who wish to pursue sailing further.
