A bit breezy today, but that doesn't stop some people from going sailing...

We had some excellent weather this bank holiday weekend, and it allowed us to run an RYA Safety Boat course for Maritime Volunteer Service - Swansea (plus others).

Everyone had a great time learning how to effectively crew a safety boat and manage events, rescue many different types of craft from dinghies to kayaks, as well as towing and mark laying.

Well done to everyone on passing the course!

Congratulations to Megan, Lance, Alessandro, Nimal and Jonathan who all attended and passed their RYA Powerboat Level 2 courses last week.

If you think that looks fun and you're looking to do the same, we hold these courses at least every month and you don't need any prior experience to attend.
