Priory Sailing Club runs Open Days and ‘Come and Try’ events to give everyone in our community an opportunity to ‘Discover Sailing’.

Everyone is welcome, we are a not for profit Community Sports Club so do come and try your hand at a watersport at Priory.

Details of the courses that we run for children and adults will be available, as will details of our club membership. You do not need to own a boat to sail at Priory Sailing Club!

Our next Discover Sailing Sessions are on 27th and 28th July.

These sessions are suitable if you are new to the sport, or if you would like to refresh some previously learnt skills.One of our RYA Instructors will accompany you in a dinghy on Priory Lake, showing you the basics of our sport and giving you the chance to control the boat – under their supervision!
Book a boat and let us take you for a sail – you can come alone and have a one to one session or bring the family and we’ll get everyone on the water!

FAQ

How do I book a session?

Go to our Eventbrite page at – Discover Sailing sessions

Simply click on the orange Select a Date button and choose your date and time.

How long will the session last?

It is a one hour session so please arrive on time so that we can kit you out and get you on the water.

What should I wear?

Please wear clothing suitable for the weather on the day. We can provide waterproof clothing and everyone will wear a buoyancy aid. Old trainers, or similar, are the best things for your feet – they are likely to get wet!

Will I get wet?

There is no plan to capsize the boat and it is unlikely that it would happen – but not impossible! It would be best to leave your mobile phone on the shore and to bring some spare clothing with you.

Do you have an accessible toilet?

Yes we do.

Who do I contact if I have any questions about the session?

If you have any questions about how the sessions will run or would like to share any information with us about your family’s needs then please don’t hesitate to call the event organiser – Jeremy Evans 07711 911585
