About the event
Pre-season training series in partnership with UKDHOS
The first weekend of the series is brought to you in partnership with Doyle Sails. Sail Expert Ollie Hill will lead us through a range of rig and sail related topics including rig setup, batten tension and sail trim. Starting with a classroom session at the Gaff Rigger on Saturday morning, the training will progress to static rig tune on the dock and eventually an afternoon on the Solent.
