The following is a comment from one of our students following a Coastal Skipper course:
“An excellent skipper and instructor, the yacht was well set up and very comfortable a class above other teaching boats in the Solent. I would definitely recommend Reach 4 the Wind to anyone interested in sailing, from beginners, to those looking for a fun weekend on the water, to serious sailors seeking to improve their racing techniques” ............
