Group Sailing Courses - Where and Anyone interested to join?
Hello Glocals,

I would like to start a sailing course towards certification asap. All sites I have seen are in French and my french sucks. I also realised that you can take group classes, which will make the whole experience better and I think cheaper as well.

So, firstly, is there an English speaking sailing school around Geneva?

Secondly, is anyone interested in joining me?

Hey! I'm definitely interested, although I've done a bit of crew sailing before, i think its always good to relearn when you're rusty!



I'm out of the country during the week though - Im assuming (hoping) you are planning for weekends?

Last month, I've done a bit of sailing on a catamaran.

It was the first time and it was tremendous.

Can you please confirm the dates we can start? I think the only issue is to have days/times suited for everyone?

I am ok with the price of the classes and dates/times. I am off to holiday from second part of September hence would like to start asap! :)

Cheers!!!!

Well, I am in, but quite limited with the times. We need to make a fix schedule.

As I don't know exactly how many people will join up the course on Tuesday 12th August, I prefer to cancel my registration. I'm afraid of being the only pupil for sailing course and then I should pay the full price without the discount. Sorry, I can't trust in people that I don't know. Without a programme schedule, and no precise number of people , I can't join up.

Acquarius, I am definitely starting as soon as possible. Either tomorrow or Thursday is fine with me but the course must finish in 3-4 weeks then I will be off for a break.

Do we have 6 people confirmed for tomorrow? Can I see the hands please :)?

If not, to get the best discount, I suggest to start on Thursday and get organised with all 6 people. I will be driving there so I can also provide lift if necessary.

Cheers!!! ;)

Well my French is so bad that I couldnt find the place to register on the web site :ermm:

I will appreciate if you could do it for me or send me the exact URL.

What info do they need for registration?

Cheers

Thanks to everyone interested and written to this post so far.

Now we are a group of 10, completed the first 4 hours with great joy!

I will write a review here after the course finishes.

Cheers!
