All sailors must have their own boats. Make sure you have carried out all repairs and that any missing parts are replaced please.
For level Ones - this is new for many of you. To get maximum benefit from the course you are advised to have your own boat or perhaps to try and borrow/hire one. We encourage Mirrors and Optimists for beginners. Some of our sailors already have Toppers.
