The 470 Class is pleased to announce the launching of its Spring 470 Training Clinic. We recognize the growing interest in 470 sailing in Southern and Eastern Europe over the recent years and we would like to support the development of the class by organizing a training clinic in the area.
Where?
After the success of last year’s programmes we
decided to take a step south and organize a training clinic in a friendly place:
Izola, Slovenia. While the rest of Europe is still freezing, the mild climate of
the Adriatic Coast will be perfect to host our first clinic of the year. The
host will be Yacht Club Burja, Izola:
Dantejeva 22
6310 Izola
Slovenia
+386 5 64 16 330
When?
The Training Clinic will be held between 29 March
to 1 April, four days before the Izola
Spring Cup, that is traditionally held around Easter Holidays.
How?
The instructor of the Training Clinic will be the
top level sailor and former Olympian Karlo Hmeljak from Slovenia. Last year,
Karlo was the instructor for the successful Eastern European Clinic held in
September in Serbia. The clinic will consist of boat preparation, on the water
training and de-briefing meetings.
Tip: There will be a regatta on the 27-28 March in Koper, which is 10 km
away from Izola, so any early arrivals are welcome to come and race. Contact
Karlo or Iulia if you are interested - contact details below.
How much?
The Training Clinic is absolutely free! The
only thing you will need to do is to bring yourself and your boat to Izola, find
a place to stay and that’s it. For details about accommodation you can
