Martin Evans – WASZP Class Manager
There was a strong turnout of 20 boats for the opening WASZP UK event of the 2023 season held at Datchet Water. Local sailor, Adam Raeburn-James, is leading the charge in encouragement and enthusiasm to persuade new sailors to the class. With regular class training events, you will be up and flying in no time.
The best way to learn is to go to these events and learn from those already in the boat. Nothing beats hands-on experience and time on the water. You might not make it around the course on your first try, but you will get better at launching and recovery; find out those top hacks for getting the wings up and down and make some new friends – what’s not to love?!
Head over to the WASZP Race Hub pages to find out about the upcoming events in the 2023 season – INCLUDING the training weekends. Once you have caught the bug, don’t just stop at the UK events, the WASZP is so easy to transport, why not try the various events around Europe. Take the family and call it a holiday?!
For more information on how to join the swarm, you can find out more about the WASZP itself or drop us a line on 01324 861 756 and we might be able to organise a test flight before you make the jump.
