Details
The SAF Yacht Club's Get Kids Afloat Pogramme is an introductory sailing course for children and youth aged between 7 and 17. It is a 4 days course conducted during the school holidays. Besides having fun in learning to sail, participants also get to make many new friends. Sailing is a thinking sport that instills confidence, hones decision making skills and trains the child's agility. Many of the Club's sailors received their head start in sailing through the GKA programme and gone on to pursue their passion in sailing whilst carving sterling achievements in both the local and international arenas.
The course syllabus includes theory and practical lessons related to rigging of crafts, parts of a craft, points of sail, capsize drill and more. Crafts used are Optimist, Topper and Laser Pico determined by the size of the participants. Parents are encouraged to attend a short briefing on Tuesday morning at 9.30am to obtain an overview of the course and to enjoy a complimentary powerboat ride on Fridays at 2pm to view their precious ones sailing on water.
