Why Dinghy Sailing…

Dinghy Sailing is one of the best ways to get away from it all, leaving the daily grind of a hectic work life behind whilst enjoying the excitement of being on the water. Relax with a much slower pace of life cruising the Solent, push yourself physically on a Skiff or socialise with friends the options are endless.

Start Dinghy Sailing…

Getting out on the water for the first time is easy at Weston Sailing Club, an RYA recognised training centre. If you want to venture out on the water, under sail, then look no further than the training section of our website to help you take your first steps afloat.

Dinghy (small boat & multihulls)

Dinghies provide an exciting and cost effective way of getting afloat to experience the thrills of sailing. You could take the family cruising, participate in high octane and fast performance sailing, race or just sail on your own for fun.

The great thing about dinghy sailing is that it provides one of the cheapest ways to get afloat. It is also the quickest and easiest way to learn to sail as dinghies are easy to rig, anyone can handle them and they are very responsive, providing limitless entertainment for everyone.

What's it about?

Dinghies are open boats which are suitable for day sailing in a variety of areas both inland and on the open sea. They are fun and exciting whilst bringing you closer to nature.
