  This Women's * Sailing social is a great way to meet other women* in the Club, hone up skills and learn new ones in a supportive and friendly environment. Women* will be paired up depending on skill level so more experienced sailors can share some of their skills and wisdom with more beginner level sailors.
  There is no agenda for this evening and it will all  be very informal. Day of, you can discuss what skills you would like refreshed or what new skills you'd like to try with your sailing partner. Please do register for the event and answer all the questions so we can get an idea of your current level and what you're interested in getting out of this evening.
