RYA Practical Sailing Courses on the Solent

RYA Practical Courses

While our theory courses are run at our training centre at Ringmer nr Lewes in central Sussex our practical training is done in the Solent. The local Sussex coast is pretty well hopeless for week-in week-out training due to it's exposed nature and lack of interesting, challenging places to visit, it's also pretty boring!

The Solent on the other hand is a God-given training ground with everything going on from tidal anomalies to serious amounts of large commercial traffic and more leisure craft than is decent. You can't call yourself a sailor until you have been to Bucklers Hard to see where Nelson's ships were built (it hasn't changed much) and relaxed at the Folly Inn, up the Medina river from Cowes.
