On April 6/7 at Alton Water Reservoir, Ipswich, Mark Rushall will be giving a 'not to be missed' tactical training weekend. Camping will be available at the country park. Mark is the author of RYA Tactics, is an Olympic sailing coach and an International and National Champion in many dinghy and sports boat classes, including Larks, 1720 and Laser 5000.

On June 15/16 at Castle Cove SC, Weymouth, Adam Bowers will be running two days of sea training. Adam Bowers is a former Fireball World Champion and RYA National Cadet coach and has run many training sessions for the Fireball Fleet.

Full details of both weekends will appear shortly on the UKFA website where you can express your interest in attending. Don’t delay as places will be limited!
