    Meet your First Class Sailing Day Skipper instructor Paul Lewis

    Paul Lewis has a very simple philosophy on board the boat....having fun whilst learning! He said 'the first part of the course is always about bringing everybody together so everyone feels included and starts to work together as a team'. Paul wants his candidates during the course to have had a good opportunity to plan a trip, deliver a trip and be a support crew for the rest of everybody else.
