Get straight to all the fun with the most responsive sailing vessel you can get. Sail in your own or with crew of one or two depending on the boat. Dinghy sailing is great fun, it's exhilarating and can become very competitive. It requires a reasonable level of fitness as you need to be able to pull yourself back into the boat after a capsize. A full range of wetsuits, boyancy aids, helmets and lifejackets in every size are provided. We work on a training ratio of 1 instructor to a maximum of 6 beginner students or 8 improver students. You don't need to be a good swimmer as long as you are comfortable being in the water. Dinghy sailing takes place within the safe confines of lough atalia.
