Weekly training

Do you want to sail regularly and get to know like-minded people? During the 2025 season, we will organize weekly training sessions for both beginners and intermediate sailors/those interested in racing. 
​
At the end of the season, those who participated in the beginner group control the sailboat independently and know how to act in all the roles of the sailboat. We get to know the boat's special sails, such as the spinnaker, gennaker and Code Zero. During the season, we also focus on navigation and excursion sailing. 
​
The advanced/race group focuses on optimal trimming and driving of the boat, as well as training for race situations. The racing group also participates in the Tuesday races organized on Tuesdays in front of Lauttasaari. The racing group will also take part in the Helsinki-Tallinn offshore race on August 22-23. 
 
The training is organized on a 10.59-meter Archambault A35 boat, which can accommodate 5-6 participants and a coach.  
​
Rainwear, gloves and life jackets can be borrowed during training.
