Saturday sailing… for less competitive and experienced sailors. An on-going training programme follows the Royal Yachting Association syllabus from the UK and uses the two Laser 16 boats. The emphasis is on enjoyment and confidence building, with rescue sailors standing by.
Six to eight consecutive Saturday afternoons or a full weekend are generally required to complete basic training. There is no charge for sailing instruction, but there is usually a waiting list.
The Novice Plate is contested each year with entry restricted to those who have learnt to helm within that year.
Sunday sailing…… for the more experienced, with rules of sailing strictly applied. Regular regattas and races are hosted and contested, involving neighbouring clubs in the Borneo region.
RBYC also offers sailing for the kids ,please click the Oppy Sailing Link above for more details.
