Training

Race training on weekday evenings

During the season we run race training on Thursday evenings with our Aira 22 boats. Three races per evening with a common start and windward-leeward course on Stora Värtan.

The training sessions are perfect if you've done the racing course and want to stay sharp, or if you want to try racing in a relaxed setting.
