The Irish Sailing Small Boat Sailing Scheme (SBSS) provides a clear and enjoyable pathway for adults learning to sail, with courses available at Irish Sailing Training Centres across the country.
Designed to build confidence and practical skills on the water, the SBSS offers structured training in a supportive environment with qualified instructors. Courses are available in a range of formats, including evening and weekend programmes, making it easier to fit sailing into a busy schedule. Whether learning for leisure, cruising, racing or simply to enjoy time afloat, the SBSS helps develop the skills and knowledge needed to become a confident sailor. Alongside learning new skills, sailing provides an opportunity to become part of a welcoming community, meet fellow sailors and enjoy the many benefits of being on the water.
With courses running throughout the season, there are many opportunities for adults to begin their sailing journey through Irish Sailing Training Centres nationwide.
