Malahide Yacht Club will be hosting a series of 420 coaching days on the Broadmeadows, Malahide, over four Saturdays in October. The four sessions will run from 9.30am to 5.30pm on Saturday 2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd October and are open to anybody who has been competing in dinghies at regional or national level and who has achieved a standard equivalent to ISA Kites and Wires 1 with spinnaker and trapeze.
Graeme Grant, an experienced international coach and former 420 and 470 sailor, will be in charge of coaching each session.
The cost for four sessions is €100 per person using their own boat. Malahide Yacht Club has two well-maintained 420s that are available to suitably experienced sailors who would like to try sailing in the 420 Class. The cost of four sessions using a club boat is €200 per person, while a €250 per person damage deposit will also be required from anybody using a club boat.
Malahide Yacht Club welcomes discussion with any interested parties about the timing and venues for more 420 coaching in the Dublin area over the winter months.
