RYA Youth Dinghy Stage 3 or 4 course Easter 2026

The RYA Youth Dinghy Stage 3 Start Sailing course builds confidence and develops the skills needed to sail in different directions in moderate conditions.

Course pre-requisites: Sailing skills to the standard of Stage 3 (Improved rigging, sailing theory, launching and recovery. Confidence in a range of sailing techniques on all points of sail and capsize recovery.)

We also require participants to practise sailing regularly through i.e. Saturday Club, club racing. If you are not sure if you have the required experience for this course, please email ryadinghy@ncsc.org.uk.
