Shipmates

Sessions are delivered in small groups, blending practical sailing with fun, confidence-building activities on the water. Young sailors develop essential boat-handling skills, safety awareness, and familiarity with the harbour environment, progressing at a pace that builds both competence and a lasting enthusiasm for being afloat.
Shipmates is supported by dedicated parents and volunteers, creating a calm, welcoming environment where young sailors can develop early sailing skills and grow in independence. This trusted and familiar setting provides a strong foundation, preparing children for the next stage of their journey through our sailing pathway.
