GoWild Sailing

On training events, Chris’s coaching and support have been invaluable and have really improved my skills. Chris’s training is delivered with clarity and encouragement … and endless supplies of patience! Under Chris’s guidance I’ve passed my Dayskipper qualification and been given the confidence to take my first steps into skippering. I’d recommend a training weekend or course for anyone wishing to develop their sailing, whether novice or more experienced.On leisure trips, there can be as much (or little) sailing as the group chooses – I’ve been to some incredibly beautiful coves and coastline in Scotland and Wales which are only accessible from the water and nothing beats the sense of peace in anchoring in an unexplored inlet or loch at sunset – usually with a glass of something chilled to celebrate another amazing day. Trips are a chance to meet and spend time with like-minded souls who love the outdoors and have a sense of adventure.

Fantastic sailing. Professional skipper. Friendly crew. Great adventure explored some amazing places looking forward to going again. Highly recommend.

I can highly recommend Chris at GoWild Sailing as a skipper and instructor. He is incredibly knowledgeable and supportive and has helped guide me from a complete sailing novice to a RYA Day Skipper. His trips are always wonderfully planned, fun, and provide the opportunity to explore lesser visited exotic locations in the UK. For anyone with an interest in sailing, whether you are looking for a new adventure or you are an old hand wanting to further hone your skills, Chris can assist. I’ll certainly be signing up for future trips :-)

We have been sailing with GoWild and Chris twice a year since 2014 - mostly to Scotland and North Wales. Chris is a very calm and patient skipper - happy to share his knowledge and to help you learn the methods and techniques of sailing in a supportive, enjoyable and fun environment.There's nothing quite like a sailing trip on board a yacht - we were hooked from our first. We started with 2-3 day beginner trips and have progressed to a week on board.As part of the sailing trips we've also enjoyed walking, wildlife and photography on uninhabited islands that can only be accessed by boat. We've made some great friends on the trips and enjoyed evenings on board with good food - or in a pub in a small harbour.We've no hesitation in recommending GoWild Sailing and Chris for your sailing trips - and we are looking forward to a trip to Croatia in the near future.
