Multihull sailing courses
Fast, fun and exhilarating - get up to speed with our multihull courses
Multihull sailing courses
Most multihulls have two hulls, occasionally three. A combination of stability and light weight means they are very fast and offer exhilarating sailing. Most are designed to be sailed by two people but there are several types that are sailed single-handed.
Multihulls require slightly different sailing techniques compared to boats with single hulls, our multihull courses will help you master the technique, taking you progressively through everything you need to know. Find out more about our courses below.
