Topper Development Training June 2026
This Topper training day is aimed at sailors who are looking to develop their race training in a structured coaching environment. The day will provide focused coaching to help sailors build stronger fundamentals, improve boat handling under pressure, and support their progression within the performance pathway. Training is run by Dan McGaughey.
Sailors should be confident sailing independently and can recover from a capsize on their own.
Training times are 10am – 4pm.
Briefing time 10.30am
Participants are required to provide their own boat.
We look forward to seeing you on the water!
