🧭 What’s it all about?

This session is an adventurous training activity for Maritime Geospatial Warfare Unit and for our Salty Community

These relaxed training sessions may include:

• Skills & drills

• Learn to sail fundamentals (working towards your Start Crewing, Helming or Skippering)

• Elliott 7 boat inductions

• Boat handling and crew coordination

• Short training races or on-water exercises

Whether you're new to sailing or building confidence on the helm, this is a supportive environment to learn, practice and enjoy time on the water with fellow veterans and supporters.

No experience required—just a good attitude and willingness to give it a go! 🙌
