Sailing courses in Wicklow

Our  friend Charlie from sailsoutheast.com sent us an update on this years sailing activities which include courses and opportunities to sail to Croatia and Athens whilst practising your boating skills… see what he has to say below:

Hi Folks,
I hope 2009 has been kind to you all so far in these difficult times. Thank you for interest and support in the past.

The Dublin Boat Show is on this week (18/22 Feb) at the RDS and my stand is Q29 (ISA section on the right) – drop by and say hello.

I have just put up the Provisional Schedule for the coming season, which hopefully will kick off in May this year. There is an outside possibility of a trip in Turkey or Croatia at Easter if anyone is interested – min. of 4 needed to make it happen.

This summer, our Sunshine trip (Athens/Kos/Athens) will give you the option of 1 or 2 weeks and we hope to have 2 boats with Yachtmaster Instructors on board in late August. We hope to be back in the Canaries in Jan 2010 also.

All the normal Introduction to Sailing, Competent Crew, Day Skipper, ICC and Exam Preparation courses will be available – ask us if dates published don’t fit your time available (all are provisional).

My prices have dropped on average c.5% and for existing customers who qualify for the 10% discount, hopefully this will help you in making up your mind.

We have a few names interested in an SRC/VHF course which hopefully will happen in March (Dublin venue most likely) – are there any other takers? (12 max.).

I am now an ISA Emergency Care Instructor (1st Aid in marine environment) and can run a course (min.4 /max.12) for your club or group, if you are interested.

Own Boat Tuition, Deliveries and other options are also available – whatever your training needs, drop us an e-mail or pick up the phone.

Hoping to see you at the Show or to hear from you over the coming months,
All the best,
Regards,
Charlie
