It’s never too late to learn to sail!
Posted: Monday, 03 June, 2019
"On 20th May Ruth Oliver, bless her, took her life in her hands to give the ‘oldest beginners’ at the club their first sailing lesson. She risked life and limb to guide us through our two day RYA level 1!! Ruth’s patience and wonderful instruction helped us achieve our aim and despite Barbara suffering from sea sickness and Tizzie having chronic indigestion on day 1 we were awarded our certificate at the end of day two - whoopee! We have now learned lots of sailing ‘terminology and tied loads of knots - hope our ancient brains can remember it all!
We will be taking level 2 with Ruth in September, if she can put up with us again!
A massive thanks to Ruth and Whitstable Yacht Club."
