Britain's most successful Olympic sailor ever is Ben Ainslie. He is a three times Olympic gold and one time Olympic silver medalist and is therefore one of the most successful sailors in history. If this hasn't inspired you enough then this sailing experience is perfect for introducing you to this tricky sport. For this experience you will be learning in either a dinghy, bahia or pico. Each of which are perfect for beginner and use the five essential controls: the sails; underwater foils; the trim; side to side balance of the boat and the choice of route.

The experience will begin with a safety briefing on the techniques required for sailing. Then it will be time to go out to the water and try it.
