Day Sailing available in 2008
Day sailing aboard 'Chewsy' starts from Troon Yacht Haven and commences at 9am with a safety brief over a cup of tea or coffee. After discussing the plans for the day with the skipper, you are ready to go sailing. The day sailing takes place within the Clyde, with the skipper usually making for a quiet anchorage or mooring for your light buffet lunch. Depending on the destination and wind / weather conditions it may be possible to go ashore to stretch your legs for a short while. Your memorable day aboard 'Chewsy' draws to its completion as you return to Troon for about 5pm.
If you wish to book a day sail call on 01292 310517 or email steve@secondwindsailing.co.uk for a booking form or further details.
A Day Sailing gift voucher is the ideal gift and is valid for the current sailing season. Depending on our other sailing activities we may be able to offer alternative days.
If you would like to make a party booking there would be a 20% discount available. Why not gather a group of friends together and join us?
