Winter Training with Mark Kay

4 October 2006

Winter training is back on the menu!

This is a no nonsense, full-on training programme in a good fun kind of way and this would be a good grounding for anyone hoping to pass selection or just improve on their sailing abilities. You may think no wind no training, you may have to think again, even when there is no wind we still have loads to learn. All you need to do is look at last year's students and see the results.

The training is aimed at Formula, Techno, and RSX, however, it is open to all. This is a list of dates potential for the winter training, first I would like to say a big well done to all of my students your results this year have been top class a big improvement made by all.
