Course Description

Before attending a Dinghy Instructor Course a Pre-Entry Assessment must be passed. The Centre offers a course allowing candidates on their first day to practice and improve their sailing skills and it is hope that candidates will then be in a position to pass the assessment on the second day.

Successful candidates must then attend a Dinghy Instructors Course within 1 year.

Anyone enrolling for the dinghy instructor course will be entitled to a reduced pre-entry assessment price.
For cost of an assessment only please apply to the Centre.
