The WYC Winter coaching program is going well this year. 10 sessions have been completed year to date with only 2 cancellations.
There are 5 sessions left – the last one being December 12. Hurry up if you do not want to miss out!
This program has allowed 34 keen sailors (from 3 different yacht clubs – it should be noted many participants join from Somers) to improve their skills over winter. A total of 92 man days!
Over a variety of sailing conditions, sailors have been coached on boat handling and sail tuning. They have also practiced their starts and skills around marks. After each session, sailors attend a debrief and later receive an individual report on what they managed well during the session and what they can improve.
Last Sunday was what we call “a perfect session”: beautiful weather, perfect conditions (10 to 14 knots of wind), speed tests, lots of practice starts (with the complete flags/sound procedure) and 3 races.
