Education
The Tauranga Yacht and Power
Boat Club runs an extensive Learn to Sail Programme conducted under the
Yachting New
Zealand Junior Sailing Scheme for the junior members of the Club. We
have experienced instructors and all safety requirements and strictly
adhered to.
This
programme for junior, Optimist and P Class sailors runs from October
through to December each year and then a follow-up course runs from January
to March.This is designed to
enable the children to practice what they have learned prior to Christmas. Topics
covered include safety, rigging, capsize practice in the safety of a
pool, wind direction, going about and much more. Anyone wishing to learn
to sail can become a member of the Club and enrol in the Learn to Sail
programme. There is also an Adult Sailing Tuition programme, usually
run early in summer. For further information contact the Office (07)
