The man on the beach - Joe Bennett. Catamaran Intensive Training Weeks.

If you’re interested in getting your sailing season off to a flying start, then why not join in with one of our intensive catamaran training weeks.

As there are limited spaces left we have added a third intensive Catamaran training week from May 22nd. The May 8th training week is now fully booked (standard holiday spaces still available) and there are only a few spaces left for May 15th, so call us now and book your place to avoid disappointment.

Open to anyone with at least a season's racing experience, Wildwind’s manager and resident expert Joe Bennett will guide you through all aspects of setting up your boat, tuning it properly for a regatta and how to sail it as fast as possible on every point of sail.

Joe not only had his 20th anniversary of working at Wildwind in Vassiliki last year, but also produced his best ever result at the Hobie Tiger World Championships in Lake Garda, finishing in 4th place overall. As well as previously achieving a 10th in the Tornado Worlds Joe has a lot to offer if you want to learn to sail faster. He is not only extremely approachable and knowledgable but also very entertaining too. His teamwork with Marko Reynolds, our bosun for many years in Vassiliki, has clearly paid off. You can see their winning style on the front cover of our 2016 brochure.

Joe has his own YOUTUBE channel, and should you wish to learn any number of topics related to rigging and fixing boats, as well as sailing them in fairly extreme conditions do take a look here.
